Summary

This study tests a special mental health program called DESCANSO/REST for Spanish-speaking Latino cancer patients who feel depressed, tired, or have trouble sleeping. The program is delivered through telehealth (video or phone calls). Researchers want to see if it is practical and acceptable to patients. About 125 patients and their mental health providers will take part.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
DESCANSO/REST behavioral intervention (telehealth mental health support)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a practical, culturally tailored mental health program for Spanish-speaking Latino cancer patients to ease depression, insomnia, and fatigue.
What could go wrong
This is a small feasibility study (125 participants) focused on whether the program is acceptable and doable, not on proving it works. It may not show clear benefits or be generalizable to all Latino patients.
