Money worries in AML: can a financial navigator ease the burden?
NCT ID NCT06945042
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at whether extra financial help (called financial navigation) can reduce money-related stress and improve quality of life for people being treated for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). About 120 adults aged 18-64 starting intensive chemotherapy will be split into two groups: one gets standard care, the other also gets a financial navigator. Researchers will measure financial well-being using a survey at 3 and 6 months.
