An interventional study of Surveys in Gynecologic Cancer, sponsored by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Not yet recruiting at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-05-18.
Sponsored by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center · Not applicable, Interventional, and Screening
This study is a prospective longitudinal cohort study with an embedded intervention. It follows participants with gynecologic malignancies and their informal caregivers over a 6-month period to assess caregiver distress, NMDOH, and patient outcomes.
Primary Objectives:
Caregivers of patients with gynecologic cancers are at risk for significant distress, which is further impacted by NMDOH. Although caregiver distress affects patient outcomes, it is not routinely measured or addressed in the clinical setting, and little is known about disparities in caregivers' distress and burden in a diverse gynecologic cancer population.
We, therefore, propose the following objectives:
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center is the lead sponsor of 2,999 studies on the registry; 581 are open to participants now.
Of its 599 completed or terminated interventional studies of FDA-regulated products, 402 (67%) have results posted.
Counted across the registry records on this site, refreshed daily.
This study will include participants from two categories:
Patients:
Caregivers:
The study will include patients with no caregiver, and only one caregiver may enroll per patient.
Exclusion Criteria:
Patients:
1. Unwilling or unable to proceed beyond the consent statement step Caregivers
1. Unwilling or unable to proceed beyond the consent statement step
This arm includes participants with gynecologic malignancies who identify and enroll with a caregiver. Both participants and caregivers will complete baseline, 3-month, and 6-month assessments. Caregiver distress and NMDOH needs will be evaluated at baseline, and results will be used to guide the provision of Community Resource Navigation (CRN).
Other: Surveys
This arm includes patients with gynecologic malignancies who do not identify or enroll with a caregiver. These participants will complete the same assessment timepoints (baseline, 3 months, and 6 months). Data from this group will serve as a comparison to evaluate differences in outcomes relative to patients with caregivers, including the impact of caregiver presence, distress levels, and NMDOH burden.
Other: Surveys
Study surveys will be administered primarily in REDCap, or with the help of a coordinator (i.e. mailing surveys, over the phone, or with a tablet during clinic visits) if assistance is needed.
