Summary

This study tests a program called PATH-C that uses positive psychology exercises to improve well-being, quality of life, and physical activity in caregivers of stem cell transplant patients. About 80 adult caregivers will be randomly assigned to the program or usual support. The main goal is to see if the program is practical and well-liked by caregivers.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adult caregivers (aged 18 years and older) of patients undergoing allogeneic or autologous HSCT at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute for a hematologic malignancy. * A relative or a friend who either lives with the patient or has in-person contact with them at least twice per week and is identified as the primary caregiver for HSCT. * Ability to speak English and able to complete questionnaires with minimal assistance of an interpreter as this is a feasibility trial of the PATH-C intervention which is currently only available in English. Exclusion Criteria: * Caregivers of patients undergoing HSCT for benign hematologic conditions. * Caregivers with acute or unstable psychiatric conditions which the treating transplant clinician believes prohibits informed consent or compliance with study procedures. * Cognitive deficits impeding a caregiver's ability to provide informed consent or participate adequately in the study assessed via a commonly used 6-item cognitive assessment with the Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) screening tool that is sensitive and specific for screening for cognitive impairment in research participants.
