New program aims to protect cancer Patients' hearts during treatment
NCT ID NCT06834204
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether a special program called Primary Care Connect (PC2) helps cancer survivors who also have conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, or high cholesterol keep their heart risks under control during cancer treatment. About 266 adults with early-stage breast, prostate, bladder, or endometrial cancer will either get the PC2 program or usual care. The goal is to see if better teamwork between cancer and primary care teams leads to better management of chronic conditions.
