First seen Mar 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 10, 2026 · Updated 12 times

Summary

This study looks at whether starting palliative care early during an unplanned hospital stay can help people with advanced cancer avoid harsh treatments near the end of life. About 493 adults with metastatic digestive, gynecological, ENT, or sarcoma cancers who are on palliative treatment will take part. The goal is to see if early collaboration between cancer doctors and palliative care specialists leads to less aggressive care and a better quality of life.
