Brief Summary:
Multiple Myeloma is an incurable cancer. Therapies for it include oral chemotherapy pills. It is unknown whether patients regularly and correctly take these anti-myeloma pills. This study wants to measure the rate of adults with MM taking anti-myeloma pills correctly. The investigators also want to use a teaching tool to see if it will help patients feel more satisfied and more confident in taking their anti-myeloma pills correctly. The investigators hope to use this data from this small study to eventually do a larger study in this area.
Detailed Description:
The prevalence of patients with myeloma utilizing orally-administered myeloma therapy (OMT) is expected to continuously rise within Canada. The MASCC Oral agent Teaching Tool (MOATT) interventional tool relies on the concept of improved patient education in turn leading to improved adherence. Although the MOATT intervention is currently endorsed by Cancer Care Ontario, there is no data using the MOATT intervention in patients with myeloma or within Canada. Prior to embarking on a larger, multi-center study, a pilot study is necessary to 1) understand the feasibility, acceptability of the MOATT intervention and its preliminary efficacy 2) to determine the rates of adherence to OMT and explore factors associated with non-adherence and 3) to determine the feasibility of a larger multi-centre trial.
