Summary

This study is testing a culturally adapted mindfulness program for Latino cancer patients and their family caregivers. The goal is to see if the program is practical and helpful for reducing stress and anxiety. About 68 patient-caregiver pairs will take part, with some starting the program right away and others after a 12-week wait.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
mindfulness-based stress reduction program
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a practical, culturally tailored way to ease anxiety and improve quality of life for Latino cancer patients and their families.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage feasibility study (68 participants) focused on whether the program is acceptable and doable, not on proving it works. Results may not apply to all Latino communities.
