This study is looking at whether it's practical to offer massage therapy to women with gynecologic cancer while they are receiving infusion treatments (like chemotherapy or immunotherapy). Researchers want to see if they can successfully recruit and keep participants, and if they can measure changes in pain and anxiety before and after massage. You would be eligible if you are a woman between 18 and 85 years old with gynecologic cancer, receiving your first infusion treatment. The study is trying to enroll 24 participants. The main goal is to understand if this type of study can be done effectively, not to prove if massage works yet.

Study design

This study is an interventional study with an unclear phase, planning to enroll 24 participants. It will compare massage therapy to an attention control group where a therapist sits and talks with you.

What's involved

If you join, you will receive either a 15-20 minute massage (hand, foot, or neck/shoulder) or have a massage therapist sit and talk with you for up to 15 minutes during your infusion.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

The study will assess how well it's recruiting and retaining participants for 6 months.
