Trial Outcomes & Findings for KanSurvive: Testing a Model for Improving Cancer Survivorship Care in Rural Practice (NCT NCT04763824)

NCT ID: NCT04763824

Last Updated: 2026-01-14

Results Overview

This outcome reflects whether recommended tumor surveillance was completed and documented in the EHR. Tumor surveillance includes cancer-specific follow-up imaging consistent with evidence-based survivorship guidelines (e.g., NCCN, ASCO). Charts were coded as "Completed" if the recommended surveillance test was documented within the appropriate interval and "Not Completed" if documentation was absent, outdated, or incomplete. The outcome reports the proportion of EHR charts meeting tumor surveillance recommendations at baseline (pre-intervention) and again 24 months after the intervention.

Participant Flow

Clinics were the unit of assignment. The intervention was delivered at the clinic level. Outcome data were collected through retrospective, de-identified EHR chart reviews. Participants represent chart abstractions for cancer survivors seen during two independent audit periods: a baseline (pre-intervention) chart audit and a 24-month post-intervention chart audit. These audit samples were drawn from the same participating clinics but do not represent the same individual cancer survivors.

Measure
Baseline (Pre-Intervention) Chart Audit
This arm represents the baseline, pre-intervention chart audit sample drawn from participating primary care clinics. Charts included in this audit reflect an independent analytic sample of cancer survivors being seen in the practice. Demographic characteristics were abstracted at this time point to describe the baseline sample. Analyses are descriptive and no inferential comparisons were conducted between baseline and post-intervention samples.
24-Month (Post-Intervention) Follow-Up Chart Audit
This arm represents the analytic sample of EHR charts reviewed at the 24-month post-intervention time point. Charts reflect an independent sample drawn from the same participating clinics and do not necessarily represent the same cancer survivors included in the baseline chart audit.

Measure
Baseline (Pre-Intervention) Chart Audit
n=138 Participants
This arm represents the baseline, pre-intervention chart audit sample drawn from participating primary care clinics prior to implementation of the KanSurvive ECHO + Practice Facilitation intervention. Charts included in this audit reflect an independent analytic sample of cancer survivors and do not necessarily represent the same individuals included in the baseline chart audit. Demographic characteristics were abstracted at this time point (Baseline) to describe the post-intervention sample. Analyses are descriptive and no inferential comparisons were conducted between baseline and post-intervention samples.
24-Month Follow-Up (Post-Intervention) Chart Audit
n=129 Participants
This arm represents the 24-month post-intervention chart audit sample drawn from the same participating primary care clinics following implementation of the KanSurvive ECHO + Practice Facilitation intervention. Charts included in this audit reflect an independent analytic sample of cancer survivors and do not necessarily represent the same individuals included in the baseline chart audit. Demographic characteristics were abstracted at this time point (Post) to describe the post-intervention sample. Analyses are descriptive and no inferential comparisons were conducted between baseline and post-intervention samples.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (Pre-Intervention) Chart Audit

Population: Analysis population includes all EHR charts meeting inclusion criteria with complete documentation for the specified time point. Differences in sample size between baseline and post-intervention reflect routine variation in chart availability and completeness across clinics

This outcome reflects whether recommended tumor surveillance was completed and documented in the EHR. Tumor surveillance includes cancer-specific follow-up imaging consistent with evidence-based survivorship guidelines (e.g., NCCN, ASCO). Charts were coded as "Completed" if the recommended surveillance test was documented within the appropriate interval and "Not Completed" if documentation was absent, outdated, or incomplete. The outcome reports the proportion of EHR charts meeting tumor surveillance recommendations at baseline (pre-intervention) and again 24 months after the intervention.

This outcome reflects whether recommended Distress Screening was completed and documented in the EHR. Distress Screening was defined as documentation of using a standardized distress assessment tool consistent with survivorship best practices. Charts were coded as "Completed" when a distress screening result was documented during the chart abstraction interval. "Not Complete" indicated missing or incomplete documentation.
