Parental Support Intervention in an Advanced Oncological Context

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Metastatic Cancer, Cancer Recurrence, Hematological Cancer, Parent-Child Relations, Parenting, Communication

In brief

This prospective, two-arm randomized trial compares a psycho-educational program to a psycho-educational and experiential program for parents with advanced cancer. These two interventions aim to support parent-child communication about cancer, but we hypothesize that the combined intervention will be more effective for all studied communication variables.
