NCT ID NCT07742449
First seen Aug 03, 2026 · Last updated Sep 18, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This trial tests whether a single, two-hour online class called Empowered Relief can help American Indian adults with cancer-related pain. Participants learn three pain relief skills, create a personal plan, and get access to a free audio app for daily practice. The study aims to see if the class is feasible and acceptable for this group, and whether it may reduce pain intensity, interference, emotional distress, and sleep problems.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

- Empowered Relief, a single-session, Zoom-based, 2-hour skills-based pain management class
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a culturally tailored, accessible pain management option that reduces pain and distress for American Indians with cancer.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small feasibility study, not a large efficacy trial, so results may not be definitive. The intervention may need cultural adjustments and may not work for everyone.
