NCT ID NCT07240935
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a Spanish version of a questionnaire that helps identify emotional distress and unmet needs in adolescents and young adults (ages 15-25) with cancer. Researchers will enroll 100 participants to see if the tool accurately measures psychosocial challenges. If successful, it will help healthcare teams provide better emotional support in Spanish-speaking countries.
