VR-CAN for Chronic Cancer Pain
This study is testing a new virtual reality (VR) program called VR-CAN, which uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles to help manage chronic cancer pain. You would use this VR program at home for two weeks. Another group will use a tablet-based program that doesn't use CBT or VR. The study wants to see if the VR-CAN device is easy for people to use as intended. You can join if you are at least 18 years old, have a cancer diagnosis and are undergoing treatment, and have had chronic cancer pain (pain lasting at least 3 months) with a pain level of 4 out of 10 or higher. The current recruitment status is unclear, and the study plans to enroll 40 participants.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study with an unclear phase, planning to enroll 40 participants. It compares a VR program to a tablet-based control.
- What's involved
- Participants will use the assigned technology (VR-CAN or tablet) at home daily for two weeks, for at least 10 minutes per session.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The primary endpoint for feasibility of device use is measured from enrollment to study completion (14 days).
