Navigated Early Survivorship Transition in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Cancer and Their Caregivers

Stopped early · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Cancer

In brief

This pilot clinical trial studies the Navigated Early Survivorship Transition (NEST) intervention in improving survivorship care planning in patients with newly diagnosed cancer and their caregivers. A survivorship care planning session (SCPS) delivered to survivors and their primary caregivers may improve psychosocial well-being, patient and caregiver engagement, and adherence to treatment and follow-up recommendations. It is not yet known whether a NEST intervention or usual care is better in improving survivorship care planning in patients with newly diagnosed cancer.
