NCT ID NCT06732375
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study tests a behavioral program called Mindset Moments for young adults (ages 19-25) who have finished cancer treatment. The program includes weekly online group sessions and daily app activities focused on coping skills, mindfulness, and peer support. Researchers want to see if it is feasible and acceptable, and whether it helps reduce anxiety and depression. 40 participants will be followed for 8 weeks.
