Summary
This study aimed to see if a cancer patient's mindset—their beliefs about their illness and their body—could affect their quality of life and treatment outcomes. Researchers planned to follow newly diagnosed patients through treatment and test a brief program to encourage helpful mindsets. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available.
