First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests a workshop called HOPE designed to reduce feelings of hopelessness and helplessness in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. Sixty participants will either attend the workshop or receive usual care. Researchers will measure whether the workshop is feasible, acceptable, and actually improves emotional well-being.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- behavioral intervention (HOPE workshop)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could provide a simple, effective way to improve emotional well-being and quality of life for people with recurrent ovarian cancer.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early feasibility study (60 participants) that is currently suspended. It focuses on mental health, not survival, and may not show a clear benefit.
