NCT ID NCT03114501

Summary

This study is testing whether doing yoga together can help head and neck cancer patients and their family caregivers feel better during radiation therapy. About 236 patient-caregiver pairs will be assigned to either do partner yoga sessions or just fill out questionnaires. Researchers want to see if the yoga improves quality of life, reduces fatigue and sleep problems, and is practical for people to do during treatment.
