Care Planning Framework in Advanced Cancer (ABC123)
Sponsor: University of Colorado, Denver
Summary
Pilot study assessing the feasibility and acceptability of the ABC123 framework, as well as goal concordance between patient and clinician stated goals. Patients \>60 years old with recently diagnosed advanced, incurable cancer in for a first consultation at a participating medical oncology clinic. The team will pilot test the ABC123 framework delivery by an advanced practice provider working with a medical oncologist to inform the overall care planning process. This framework will routinely incorporate and implement existing resources from these 3 transdisciplinary tenets (geriatric, oncology, and palliative medicine) into initial care planning in a patient-centered manner. The team will follow patients from initial care planning to 6 months post-intervention and assess additional stakeholder feedback on barriers and facilitators to implementation.

This care planning framework aims to implement existing tools in geriatric medicine, palliative medicine, and medical oncology to aid in cancer care planning for older adults with newly diagnosed incurable advanced cancer and to test the delivery of goal-concordant care. This patient-centered intervention is the ABC123 care planning framework in parallel with usual care that includes a physical function assessment, chemotherapy toxicity estimate calculation, and a guided goals of care discussion.
