Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
CDC Mobile App Treatment
Subjects who are randomized to the CDC mobile app treatment arm will be asked to perform the app's full suite of intervention tools such as learning about PTSD, assessment, finding support, and mind/body exercises (e.g., guided imagery, meditation, and relaxation exercises) over the entire 8-week study period.
Cancer Distress Coach Mobile App
Cancer Distress Coach is a stand-alone symptom management tool with three basic components. The Learn about Distress module provides psycho-education. The Insights module includes an inspiring Quote of the Day, daily activity planning tips, a graph displaying the user's distress level plotted over time, and assessment feedback. The main action of the application is in the Activities module that provides patients with skills to manage their stress in the moment they experience it. Depending on the severity, the patient is routed to any of a number of helpful skills based on cognitive-behavioral principles. The stress management tools include positive imageries, soothing songs and pictures, and the Relax-Identify-Decide tool. Also included is "find support" and "get support now" to connect the user to his/her support network and locate informal cancer and non-cancer related support or (immediate) professional care.
CDC Mobile App Wait-List Control
Subjects who are randomized to the CDC mobile app wait-list control arm will be asked to perform only the learning about PTSD, assessment, and finding support activities for the first 4 weeks. Following completion of the Week-4 questionnaires, subjects will then be asked to additionally perform the mind/body exercises (e.g., guided imagery, meditation, and relaxation exercises) for the duration of the 8-week study period.
