Abstract
Background
The increasing use of targeted oral anticancer agents (OAAs) has transformed cancer treatment, yet patient adherence in real-world settings remains suboptimal. This protocol outlines a multi-phasic, hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial designed to develop, implement, and evaluate a risk-adapted, longitudinal medication adherence intervention for patients prescribed OAAs.
Methods
Drawing on social cognitive theory, intervention mapping, and implementation science, the study aims to address barriers at cognitive, behavioral, and environmental levels that impact adherence. Phase 1 identifies implementation barriers and refines strategies, informed by expert input and semi-structured interviews. Phase 2 incorporates patient-centered feedback to tailor a theory-driven intervention targeting adherence barriers. In Phase 3, the intervention is piloted across diverse clinical settings to assess its effectiveness and implementation feasibility.
Conclusion
This trial aims to deliver a scalable and sustainable model for adherence support, with broad implications for improving patient outcomes and integrating adherence monitoring in routine cancer care.
