New program aims to ease the mental and physical burden of leukemia treatment

NCT ID NCT04224974

Summary

This study is testing whether a new support program called EASE can help reduce the severe emotional distress and physical symptoms people often experience after being diagnosed with acute leukemia. About 266 newly diagnosed patients will be randomly assigned to receive either their usual hospital care or usual care plus the EASE program. The EASE program provides tailored psychological therapy to address traumatic stress and regular symptom checks that can trigger early referral to specialized symptom control (palliative care) teams.
