Sponsor's own description

This health services interventional study investigates the effectiveness of central oncology navigation (SOC ) alone and central oncology navigation with a new role called an "oncology research navigator (ORN)" who is embedded in central oncology navigation cancer care delivery. This study will examine two patient cohorts: Cohort 1 will enroll patients with new cancer appointments within genitourinary (GU) or thoracic cancers. These clinics have not yet implemented the central navigation program. Participants will be enrolled pre- and post-implementation of the central oncology navigator within these cancer groups to evaluate the effectiveness of the central oncology navigator alone. The second cohort will enroll participants with new cancer appointments within gastrointestinal (GI), hematology, and breast cancer (clinics where the central navigation program was implemented). These individuals will be randomized to receive standard of care, which for these cancer types includes central oncology navigation or the intervention of an oncology research navigator in addition to SOC. This intervention will involve baseline and biweekly follow-up for a total of 3 months. Interactions with the ORN will include facilitating participation in supportive care services and clinical trials. All participants will undergo baseline and follow-up patient-reported outcomes and data collection. The study will evaluate the impact of the central oncology navigation program alone, as well as the addition of the ORN on patient quality of life, as well as enrollment into studies and participation in supportive care services. Additional analyses will evaluate the impact of the central oncology navigation program on patient experience, patient activation, net promoter scores, and overall survival.
