Randomized Trial of an Intervention to Enhance Quality of Life in Adults Completing Lung Cancer Treatment With Curative Intent
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a brief psychoeducational intervention to improve quality of life in patients with lung cancer who are transitioning from active treatment to surveillance.
This is a randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of a brief psychoeducational intervention relative to a control condition for improving quality of life in patients with lung cancer who are transitioning from treatment to surveillance.
In this study, participants will complete survey questions and will be randomly assigned to receive a 5-session program or a 1-session program.
It is expected that about 100 people will take part in this research study.
