STRONG-PCS: Support Through Remote Observation and Nutrition Guidance Program for Pancreatic Cancer

This study is testing a program called STRONG-PCS, which offers extra support from dietitians and nutrition guidance to people with pancreatic cancer who have had surgery. The program involves collecting Fitbit data and providing personalized nutrition counseling through telehealth or in person for 12 weeks. You would also complete surveys about your well-being at the start and at weeks 4, 8, and 12. The main goal is to see if this program is practical to run and if participants are happy with it. To join, you must be at least 18 years old, have pancreatic cancer, have completed specific pancreatic surgery at Moffitt Cancer Center, be on an oral diet, and be able to speak and read English or Spanish. The study is currently recruiting up to 80 participants.
