Summary

This study tests whether a simple card game, the Go Wish Game, can help people with advanced blood cancers or solid tumors discuss their end-of-life priorities with doctors. About 75 patients will use the cards to sort what matters most to them, then complete an advance care planning document. The goal is to see if this approach is feasible and acceptable for patients and caregivers.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Go Wish Game (card-based discussion tool)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a simple, effective way for patients with advanced cancer to clarify their end-of-life wishes and improve communication with doctors.
What could go wrong
This is a small feasibility study (75 participants) with no control group, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is only a conversation tool and does not change medical outcomes.
