NeuroPathways Intervention for Brain Tumor Patients (NCT05976490)
NeuroPathways: An Information and Support Intervention for Patients With Malignant Brain Tumors
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This goal of this study is to test an information and support intervention for patients with malignant (or "high-grade") brain tumors. This study was developed to help patients cope after a brain tumor diagnosis. The main question this study aims to answer is whether this intervention (which includes access to an information guide and one-on-one coaching sessions) is feasible (i.e., possible to carry out) and acceptable (i.e., considered helpful) to patients. Participants will be asked to take part in the coaching sessions, use the guide as desired, and complete a small group of short surveys at three different points in time; some participants will be asked to share feedback via exit interviews.
