Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

No Intervention

Arm Label

With Love, Grandma ("Con Cariño, Abuelita") Group

Control Group

Arm Description

Cancer survivor-Daughter dyads randomized to the With Love, Grandma ("Con Cariño, Abuelita") group will access a digital lifestyle program that includes 8 modules of didactic, behavioral, and family communication/parenting/grandparenting content from smartphones over the course of 10-12 weeks.

This group is intended to reflect typical services cancer survivors and family members receive from healthcare providers.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percent of survivor-daughter dyads retained at post-intervention (feasibility)
Calculated by percent of enrolled survivor-daughter dyads who completed post-intervention measures
Percent of modules completed by survivor-daughter dyads (acceptability)
Calculated as number of modules completed (of 8 total modules) by survivors and daughters

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in survivor and daughter physical activity as reported in the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ)
Participants will self-report walking and sitting time (hours and minutes per day) using three items from the IPAQ. Mean difference in total time spent walking and sitting will be calculated from these items. The result is not reported in scales. Higher scores indicate higher time spent walking and sitting in the last 7 days.
Change in survivor and daughter physical activity as measured by the Godin Leisure Time Exercise Questionnaire
Responses range from 0 - greater than 24, with 0 indicating no activity and a higher score indicating more activities (no maximum score).
Change in survivor and daughter fruit and vegetable intake as measured by the NCI All-Day Screener
Participants will self-report dietary intake using the NCI All-Day Screener for fruit and vegetables and the percentage of energy from fat and fiber. Mean difference in cup equivalents of fruits and vegetables will be calculated using a scoring algorithm developed by the National Cancer Institute

Intervention Type
Behavioral
Intervention Name(s)
With Love, Grandma ("Con Cariño, Abuelita")
Intervention Description
Cancer survivor-Daughter dyads will log in to a secured website to access intervention content over a period of 10-12 weeks. The intervention will be delivered primarily through smartphones and will include 8 modules with didactic content on healthy lifestyle behaviors for cancer prevention and control, family behavior change content for setting weekly goals and self-monitoring health behaviors, and family communication and positive parenting/grandparenting content, all of which were developed in accordance with participant feedback based on formative intervention development work. In addition, and to increase participant compliance/reduce attrition often observed in digital health interventions, human support ("supportive accountability") will be provided. Specifically, each family will be assigned a "coach" who will use video conferencing software to engage in weekly 15-30 minute sessions regarding the family's progress throughout the intervention period.
