Can starting comfort care sooner ease the burden of pancreatic cancer?

NCT ID NCT04632303

Summary

This study is testing whether connecting patients with advanced pancreatic cancer to specialized comfort care (palliative care) teams early in their treatment improves their quality of life and may help them live longer. It involves 250 adults who are about to start first-line cancer treatment. The goal is to see if this early support model, which focuses on managing pain, fatigue, and distress, works better than standard care.
