Comparing Supportive Cancer Care Models for Adults with Cancer
This study is comparing two ways to provide supportive care for adults newly diagnosed with solid tumor cancer or a recurrence. One approach, called "technology-based supportive cancer care," involves sending you information about advance care planning and managing symptoms through messages or email. The other approach, "redesigned team-based supportive cancer care," involves meeting one-on-one with a Lay Health Worker to discuss these topics. We want to see if one approach is better at improving your health-related quality of life. You can join if you are 18 or older, have a solid tumor cancer diagnosis or recurrence, can give verbal consent, and speak English, Spanish, Chinese, or Vietnamese. We are looking to enroll about 2996 people.
- Study design
