Abstract

Objective: A recent randomized trial of a group psychosocial telehealth intervention (STRIDE) improved anxiety, depression, quality of life (QOL), symptom distress, coping, and self-efficacy to manage symptoms related to taking adjuvant endocrine therapy (AET) in women with non-metastatic hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. This study examined whether changes in coping and self-efficacy mediated intervention effects on anxiety, depression, QOL, and symptom distress.

Method: Women (N = 100) were recruited between 10/2019-06/2021 from Massachusetts General Hospital and were randomized to STRIDE or to the medication monitoring control group. Participants completed self-report measures of anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale), QOL (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast Cancer scale), symptom distress (Breast Cancer Prevention Trial Symptom Scale), coping (Measure of Current Status-Part A), and self-efficacy (Self Efficacy for Managing AET Symptoms) at baseline and 24-week follow-up. Mediated regression models tested whether changes in coping ability and self-efficacy mediated the intervention effects on anxiety, depression, QOL, and symptom distress, controlling for key variables.

Results: Improvements in coping across the 24-week study period mediated the effect of STRIDE on anxiety symptoms (indirect effect, B = -0.61, SE = 0.28, 95% CI: -1.28, -0.17), depressive symptoms (indirect effect, B = -0.50, SE = 0.21, 95% CI: -0.97, -0.15), and QOL (indirect effect, B = 3.80, SE = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.54, 6.49), but not symptom distress. Changes in self-efficacy did not mediate improvements in any of the proposed outcomes.

Conclusion: Coping is an essential component of a brief group psychosocial intervention that drives improvements in mood and QOL for women with non-metastatic hormone receptor-positive breast cancer taking AET.

期刊介绍： Psycho-Oncology is concerned with the psychological, social, behavioral, and ethical aspects of cancer. This subspeciality addresses the two major psychological dimensions of cancer: the psychological responses of patients to cancer at all stages of the disease, and that of their families and caretakers; and the psychological, behavioral and social factors that may influence the disease process. Psycho-oncology is an area of multi-disciplinary interest and has boundaries with the major specialities in oncology: the clinical disciplines (surgery, medicine, pediatrics, radiotherapy), epidemiology, immunology, endocrinology, biology, pathology, bioethics, palliative care, rehabilitation medicine, clinical trials research and decision making, as well as psychiatry and psychology. This international journal is published twelve times a year and will consider contributions to research of clinical and theoretical interest. Topics covered are wide-ranging and relate to the psychosocial aspects of cancer and AIDS-related tumors, including: epidemiology, quality of life, palliative and supportive care, psychiatry, psychology, sociology, social work, nursing and educational issues. Special reviews are offered from time to time. There is a section reviewing recently published books. A society news section is available for the dissemination of information relating to meetings, conferences and other society-related topics. Summary proceedings of important national and international symposia falling within the aims of the journal are presented.
