Autologous stem cell transplantation (SCT) is the standard of care for fit multiple myeloma (MM) patients; however, the first 100 days after SCT are marked by extensive life disruptions. We have found a 56% relative increase in the use of high-risk benzodiazepine and Z-class (B/Z) drugs for anxiety and insomnia among MM patients during this period. Digital life coaching (DLC), whereby trained coaches work longitudinally with patients through phone calls and text messages to accomplish personal goals, may be able to target anxiety and insomnia in a more integrative manner. This study will investigate whether peri-SCT DLC can lower B/Z usage and improve patient-reported well-being.
This is a single-center, Phase II randomized study of MM patients comparing 16 weeks of DLC access versus quasi-usual care (quasi-usual because both arms will receive generic wellness-related electronic handouts alongside requests for patient-reported outcome (PRO) assessments).
Primary Objective:
To evaluate DLC's impact on B/Z drug usage (excluding lorazepam prescribed for chemotherapy-induced nausea/vomiting, or CINV)
Secondary Objectives:
Exploratory Objectives:
Participants may continue study treatment (DLC platform access) for 16 weeks from the time of initiating treatment. Participants will not be contacted by the DLC platform vendor after this point. Patients will be followed up at Day +101 after SCT, corresponding to approximately 3 months after SCT.

|---|---|---|---|
| Pack Health's Digital Life Coaching (DLC) | Experimental | Participants will receive 16 weeks of access to a trained human life coach employed by Pack Health. Coaches will communicate via phone calls, text messages, emails, and links to web-based Pack Health resources plus the addition of generic wellness-related electronic handouts at the time of each email reminder for participant-reported outcome (PRO) assessments |
|
| Quasi-usual care control arm | Active Comparator | Participants will receive usual supportive care for stem cell transplantation plus the addition of generic wellness-related electronic handouts at the time of each email reminder for participant-reported outcome (PRO) assessments |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Comparison of patients with >=1 benzodiazepine and Z-class (B/Z) prescriptions (versus < 1 B/Z prescriptions) | Proportions of patients with >=1 B/Z prescription versus <1 B/Z prescriptions will be compared between arms using chi-square analyses. Participants will be stratified on B/Z usage over time into 3 groups arms based on B/Z-naïve status (i.e., no B/Z usage at time of study enrollment), baseline psychosocial distress, defined as an National Comprehensive Caner Network (NCCN) Distress Thermometer (DT) score of 4 or higher, and baseline insomnia, defined as a Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Sleep Disturbance short form (SF) 4 item (4a) standardized score of 57 or higher. | Up to 6 months |
| Estimate change in B/Z usage | Estimations or differences in changes over time by study group will be performed via a post-estimation test using one-sided t-tests at each assessment. To control the family wise error rate at alpha level of 0.05, the Bonferroni method will be used. | Up to 6 months |
| Number of participants with a missing Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Global Health (GH) assessment | Sensitivity analyses for missing data will be performed on participants with missing PROMIS Global Health assessments | Up to 6 months |
| Number of participants with a missing NCCN Distress Thermometer (DT) assessment | Sensitivity analyses for missing data will be performed on participants with missing NCCN DT Assessments | Up to 6 months |
| Number of participants with a missing PROMIS Sleep Disturbance SF-4a inventory | Sensitivity analyses for missing data will be performed on participants with missing PROMIS Sleep Disturbance SF-4a inventories. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in PROMIS Global Health (GH) Scale Scores | This 10-item inventory is part of the PROMIS series to assess quality of life (QOL) with item scores ranging from 1 to 5. Raw PROMIS scores will be transformed to T-score metrics to reflect a population mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Among cancer patients, a T-score change of 5 points on any PROMIS inventory is generally considered to be clinically meaningful |

| Change in NCCN Distress Thermometer (DT) Scores | This single-item inventory uses an analog graphic to allow patients to assess their overall distress with a score range of 0 (no distress) to 10 (extreme distress). A score of 4 or higher to differentiate clinically significant distress. | Up to 6 months |
| Change in PROMIS 4-item Sleep Disturbance Short Form (SF-4a) Scores | The PROMIS Sleep Disturbance SF-4a inventory will be used to assess quality of sleep, with item scores ranging from 1 to 5. Raw PROMIS scores will subsequently be transformed to T-score metrics to reflect a population mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10. As validated in a previous study of cancer patients, a PROMIS Sleep Disturbance score of 57 or higher will be defined as insomnia. | Up to 6 months |
