New 'Navigator' role aims to guide cancer patients through tough treatments

NCT ID NCT07045740

Summary

This study is testing whether adding a specialized physiotherapist, called a navigator, to a cancer care team is practical and helpful. The navigator would check in regularly with patients during their cancer treatments to spot side effects early, help manage issues like fatigue, and connect them to other support services. Researchers want to see if this approach is feasible and if it leads to better quality of life and physical function compared to usual care alone.
