The Breast Cancer Survivors and Partners Online Research Together (SUPORT) Project (NCT05676255)
The SUPORT Project: Leveraging Social Connection by Including Informal Caregivers in an Internet Video Conference-based Compassion Meditation Intervention to Reduce Psychological Distress in Breast Cancer Survivors
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Many breast cancer survivors (estimated 70% in some studies) experience clinically significant depression and/or anxiety in the months and years after finishing cancer treatments. This research will build on the rigor of prior research to reduce breast cancer survivor depression and anxiety with a compassion meditation intervention called CBCT (Cognitively-Based Compassion Training) for online synchronous delivery that is also inclusive of informal caregivers (i.e., adult family members who live with and typically provide half the care for survivors, aka supportive partners).
