Brief Summary:
This research study is testing the feasibility and acceptability of a 12-week intervention that integrates telephone coaching and printed materials about the ACS guidelines and healthy lifestyle behaviors in order to manage symptoms after treatment for cancer We will recruit 57 dyads the survivor plus one identified informal caregiver from the community
Detailed Description:
This research study is testing the feasibility and acceptability of a 12-week intervention that integrates telephone coaching and printed materials about the ACS guidelines and healthy lifestyle behaviors in order to manage symptoms after treatment for cancer The study population is 36 Latinas who have recently completed treatment for solid tumor cancers and their informal caregiver 36 dyads Research suggests that family members can be facilitators to behavior change more specifically Latinos rely on family support more than non-Hispanic Whites
Fewer than 20 of Latina cancer survivors meet the American Cancer Societys ACS Guidelines on Nutrition and Physical Activity Healthier lifestyle behaviors such as diet and physical activity would result in an immediate benefit of reduced symptoms and long-term benefit of improved health while lowering cancer risk This pilot study tests an intervention that will help in lessening survivors symptoms to improve adherence to the ACS guidelines for cancer prevention ultimately improving overall health A telephone-based intervention does not require any in-person meetings outside of initial recruitment and lessens participant burden
The Specific Aims of this project are to evaluate this intervention among 36 survivors who have recently completed treatment for solid tumor cancers and their informal caregivers to 1 Determine the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention 2 Establish the preliminary efficacy for improvement in diet physical activity and quality of life for the dyads and symptom burden for survivors through surveys given at baseline and study completion as well as a weekly symptom distress survey
