The Effect of COVID-19 Pandemic on Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Patients and Survivors (NCT04551378)
Impacts of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Pandemic on Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Cancer Patients and Survivors
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The study investigates how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the psychological, financial, physical, and social well-being of adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer patients and survivors. AYA cancer survivors have inferior long-term survival compared to the general population, and the negative impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic may be even higher in this vulnerable group. The information gained from this study may provide an opportunity to determine the self-reported COVID-19 specific psychological distress in AYA cancer survivors, and may lead to the development of a targeted intervention to improve physical and psychosocial health for AYA cancer patients and survivors.
