CONfident Treatment Decisions in Living With Rheumatoid Arthritis

Study Purpose

Pilot test the novel educational patient-directed intervention to demonstrate the feasibility of the novel educational approaches developed in improving patient's willingness to achieve remission or low disease activity in RA.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT03317756
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

Pilot test the novel educational patient-directed intervention to demonstrate the feasibility of the novel educational approaches developed in improving patient's willingness to achieve remission or low disease activity in RA. Upon agreement to participate, the patient participants will provide information on their treating physician. This information will be used to invite physicians to complete the physician-educational intervention and offered CME credits for completing the activity. The investigators will recruit participants from a patient registry (1:1 intervention: control) that meet the eligibility criteria. The recruited patients will complete the educational intervention (if randomized to the intervention arm) and the study outcomes will be collected immediately after the intervention and also after the patients most proximate rheumatologist visit (up to 6-months later).

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: Patient Variation 1

Patient Educational Intervention: Patient will receive intervention videos and will be required to complete the baseline and follow-up surveys.

Experimental: Patient Variation 2

Patient Control: Patients will receive an attention control and will be required to complete the baseline and follow-up surveys.

Interventions

Other: - Patient Educational Intervention

Patients will view 5-6 videos that will help them with pre-identified patient barriers to achieving RA low disease activity

Other: - Patient Control

Patients will receive an attention control
