First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a virtual support platform can improve emotional well-being in men who had testicular cancer in the last 5 years. 360 men in North Carolina will be split into two groups: one gets access to the support platform, the other gets educational materials only. Researchers will compare their emotional health, anxiety, depression, and quality of life after 3 and 6 months.
