Brief Summary:
This randomized phase III trial studies how well decision aids work in improving knowledge in patients with prostate cancer. Decision aids may improve patients' knowledge of their condition and options for treatment, and may also help when talking with their doctor.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Knowledge assessed by Prostate Cancer Treatment questionnaire [ Time Frame: Up to 12 months ]
    A mixed effects regression model (also known as random effects model or multi-level model) will be utilized to examine the effects of the during-consultation Prostate Choice and the pre-consultation Knowing Your Options decision aids. Specifically, this model will contain a fixed intercept, a fixed effect for having received Prostate Choice, a fixed effect for having received Knowing Your Options. Baseline patient-level characteristics including race, ethnicity, severity of disease and site-level characteristics may be incorporated in this model if deemed appropriate.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Decisional quality as measured by Decisional Conflict Scale Decisional Regret [ Time Frame: Up to 12 months ]
    Will be compared across DA types using linear mixed models. In particular, this model will include fixed effects for Prostate Choice and Knowing Your Options and a random, site-specific intercept to allow for subjects within the same site to be correlated. Will explore whether the overall effects of interventions on patient knowledge, quality of life, and treatment utilization differ by racial/ethnic subgroups.

  2. Quality of life assessed by questionnaire [ Time Frame: Up to 12 months ]
    Will be converted into continuous summary scores using standard algorithms. Will be compared across DA types using linear mixed models. In particular, this model will include fixed effects for Prostate Choice and Knowing Your Options and a random, site-specific intercept to allow for subjects within the same site to be correlated. Will explore whether the overall effects of interventions on patient knowledge, quality of life, and treatment utilization differ by racial/ethnic subgroups.

  3. Utilization as determined by chart review [ Time Frame: At 12 months ]
    Will be categorized by the type of treatment the patient received. Will be compared across DA types using linear mixed models. In particular, this model will include fixed effects for Prostate Choice and Knowing Your Options and a random, site-specific intercept to allow for subjects within the same site to be correlated. Will explore whether the overall effects of interventions on patient knowledge, quality of life, and treatment utilization differ by racial/ethnic subgroups.

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   Male
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients must have prostate biopsy within 4 months prior to registration showing newly diagnosed prostate cancer, stage T1-3N0M0; in addition, patients must have: Gleason score 6-10
  • Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) < 50 ng/mL
  • Patients who have had a history of non-cutaneous malignancy in the previous 5 years are not eligible; exception: patients with history of non-melanoma skin cancer are eligible
  • Scheduled prostate cancer consultation to be the first consultation after diagnosis (i.e. not a second-opinion or a consultation following previous discussions of treatment options)
  • Patients may not be concurrently enrolled to another clinical trial for the treatment of cancer; co-enrollment to biospecimen studies is allowed
  • Patients with impaired decision-making capacity (such as with a diagnosis of dementia or memory loss) are not eligible for this study
  • Patients must be able to read and comprehend English; non-English-speaking patients may participate so long as an interpreter (e.g., family member, clinic staff, etc.) is present for consent, for the decision aid administration, and gathering of baseline and follow-up measures
