Families Addressing Cancer Together (FACT): A Pilot Randomized Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating FACT for Neoplasms and 5 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 47 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The proposed pilot randomized controlled trial will test the FACT (Families Addressing Cancer Together) intervention designed to improve parents' confidence and ability to talk about their cancer with their minor children. We will enroll 40 patients with cancer who have a minor child to participate in this single site, 6-week study. The primary hypothesis being tested is that an intervention that assists parents with their communication needs with their children can be feasible and acceptable when compared with a wait-list control condition.
