First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at how cancer treatment impacts the work life and overall well-being of 400 men, ages 21 to 70, who have been newly diagnosed with solid tumors like colorectal, lung, or head and neck cancer. Participants will fill out questionnaires about their work hours, financial stress, and emotional health over 12 months. The goal is to better understand the challenges low-income and Latino men face while balancing treatment and employment.
