NCT ID NCT07671209

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether screening adults with leukemia for social needs (like housing or food) and offering early social work help is practical and helpful. About 80 newly diagnosed patients will either get the screening and consultation or usual care. The goal is to see if this approach is acceptable and can reduce distress and financial burden.
