Acronym: SMART
Brief Summary: This trial is a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial SMART that will examine response to differing doses of a behavioral cancer pain intervention Pain Coping Skills Training PCST and subsequent response-based adjustments to doses Cancer patients with pain will initially be randomized to receive either PCST-Full or PCST-Brief Participants who do not report pain reduction to their initially assigned intervention will be re-randomized to receive either maintenance or an increased level of intervention Participants who report pain reduction to their initially assigned intervention will be re-randomized to either a maintenance dose or no further treatment Intervention responses will be compared across conditions using a standard two-sided two-sample t-test Techniques typically used for SMART studies will be used to compare intervention dosage sequences across PCTS that adjusts to initial dosage based on patient responses The risk and safety issues in this trial are low and limited to those common to a psychosocial intervention eg loss of confidentiality
Detailed Description: The incidence of moderate to severe pain in cancer patients remains greater than 50 NIH guidelines recommend the implementation of behavioral cancer pain interventions into patient care Yet implementation remains low Evidence on patient dose-response ie number of sessions skills intervention adaption based on initial response and understanding personal characteristics related to differing dose-response can improve implementation by optimizing behavioral intervention delivery
