UMLT19186 / K08 JIT / Ramsdale
Basic Study Information
Purpose:
This is a single-site cluster-randomized trial to assess efficacy and implementation
outcomes of deprescribing interventions in 72 older adults with polypharmacy (PP)
and curable cancers initiating chemotherapy. Oncologists (as the cluster) will enroll
6 patients each and will be randomized to either a pharmacist-led deprescribing intervention
or patient education intervention. Initial focus groups with oncologists, nurses,
pharmacists, primary care physicians, and patients will provide data for initial adaptations
to the pharmacist-led intervention arm, and 8 patients will be enrolled as a pre-trial
cohort to further refine and adapt the pharmacist-led intervention.
