Supportive Care Intervention for Outpatient Stem Cell Transplant Patients (NCT06564233)
A Randomized Controlled Trial of an Avatar-based Supportive Care Intervention for Patients Undergoing Outpatient Stem Cell Transplantation
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The overall goal of this study is to assess the efficacy of the care.coach Avatar™ in improving anxiety and quality of life for patients undergoing outpatient transplant. After care.coach Avatar™ content and scheduling ("digital intervention" or "program") has been optimized for outpatient allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT), a randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted of the digital versus usual supportive care program for outpatient HCT recipients. Potential improvements in anxiety and quality of life will be evaluated, with the intent of increasing comfortability with outpatient transplant and expanding the population of eligible patients willing to receive their transplants in an outpatient setting.
