In the experimental arm, patients will receive 6 sessions of sophrology. The sessions are individual and last approximately 50 minutes.

In addition to the sophrology sessions, patients will benefit from two speech therapy sessions per week for 6 months, lasting from 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on the patient's general condition.

Speech therapy

Patients with brain tumours experience a loss of independence, which may occur suddenly or gradually. Communication with the patient may be rapidly impaired, due to impaired alertness, language and/or neurocognitive disorders.

In addition to these clinical symptoms, there is a high level of anxiety and depression in this population due to the severity of the diagnosis, with a major impact on the patients' quality of life. In this study, we are mainly interested in the proportion of this population with communication disorders where speech therapy is important In order to better take into account anxiety, which is often difficult to verbalise due to communication problems, sophrology can be proposed as an alternative to psychological support, which is often too complicated or inappropriate.

After having noted positive feedback from patients after joint speech therapy and sophrology treatment, we wish to evaluate the interest of coupling sophrology treatment for patients with glial tumours requiring speech therapy.

Our hypothesis is that this association would improve the level of anxiety, the quality of life and have a positive impact on the patient's speech therapy.

Sophrology Treatment for Patients With Glial Tumours Requiring Speech Therapy

Anxiety levels will be measured using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale at 6 months in both treatment arms. The quality of life scale consists of 14 items scored from 0 to 3. A score of 0 indicates that the patient has no anxiety disorder, a score of 21 indicates that the patient has a severe anxiety disorder.

Quality of life will be assessed by quality of life questionnaires at baseline and after 3 and 6 months of treatment. These are the QLQ-C30 v3 questionnaire and the brain-specific module EORTC-BN20 ;

Stéphanie Morisson, MD

Cancer is pathology with a high impact on patients and relatives quality of life. Most of the time, it is a stressful trial. Professionals have often resort to pharmaceutical solutions, but sometimes, it is not sufficient. So, patients resort to alternative and complementary medicines, as sophrology. In Lucien Neuwirth Cancer Institute, patients can benefit from sophrology.

Anxiety levels have never been reported before and after sessions. Indeed, the present study wants to report anxiety levels before, after, and one and three weeks after session. Levels of satisfaction will also be reported.

Post-SOPHrology Cancer Patients' anxieTY Report

Level of anxiety after sophrology session will be compared to the level of anxiety before session, on a visual scale from 0 to 10. The scale is 10 centimeters long, printed on a paper.

Level of anxiety after a second session of sophrology will be compared to the level of anxiety reported before the first sophrology session, according to the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale, part A. The part A is composed of seven questions, with a score obtained between 0 and 28. A score between :

* 7 or less : no symptomatology ;
* 8 to 10 : doubtful symptomatology ;
* 11 and more : certain symptomatology.

Level of depression after a second session of sophrology will be compared to the level of depression reported before the first sophrology session, according to the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale, part B. The part B is composed of seven questions, with a score obtained between 0 and 28. A score between :

* 7 or less : no symptomatology ;
* 8 to 10 : doubtful symptomatology ;
* 11 and more : certain symptomatology.

Duration of sessions will be reported, unit used: minutes.

Number of sessions performed during one month will be reported.

Patients satisfaction will be reported during one month, as many times as they performed sophrology sessions, on a visual scale from 0 to 10. The scale is 10 centimeters long, printed on a paper.
