Experiences w/ & Attitudes Towards Immune Chckpt Inhibitors in NSCLC Patients Single Center Survey Based Study
What this study is about
This study evaluates patient satisfaction with receiving given through a vein (IV) (IV) and/or injected under the skin (SC) immunotherapy and to assess patient preference for IV immunotherapy administration versus SC immunotherapy administration either at the hospital or at home.
View original scientific description

Primary outcome measures
Strength of patient perception of Intravenous (IV) Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) therapy
Time frame: At Baseline through study completion, up to 1 year.
Outcome data will be collected using a questionnaire per study protocol. A Likert scale rating system of Strongly Disagree, Disagree, Neutral, Agree, Strongly Agree will be used. Summaries of data will be descriptive and standard statistical methods (median) will be used to present the results. Pearson's chi-square test, the Mantel-Haenszel test (or corresponding exact tests, if resulting expected numbers are small) will be used; the resulting p-value will be used as an indication of strength of an observed association.
Patient interest in home SC ICI administration vs. IV ICI administration at the infusion center
Time frame: At Baseline through study completion, up to 1 year.
Outcome data will be collected using a questionnaire per study protocol. Results will be summarized with point estimates and confidence intervals; p-values, when calculated, will be used to indicate the strength of an observed association (not just the magnitude).

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
