Defining the Role of Palliative carE for Patients With Hematologic Malignancies Undergoing Adoptive CEllular Therapy: The PEACE Study
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this study is to determine whether a palliative care intervention (PEACE) can improve the quality of life and experiences of participants with Lymphoma, Leukemia, or Multiple Myeloma receiving adoptive cellular therapy (ACT). After completion of an open pilot, participants will be randomly assigned into one of two study intervention groups. The names of the study intervention groups involved in this study are: * Palliative care (PEACE) plus usual oncology care * Usual care (standard oncology care) Participation in this research study is expected to last for up to 2 years. It is expected that about 90 people will take part in this research study.
