Trial Identification

Brief Title: Fear-focused Self-Compassion Therapy for Young Breast Cancer Patients' Fear of Cancer Recurrence

Official Title: Fear-focused Self-Compassion Therapy for Young Breast Cancer Patients' Fear of Cancer Recurrence: Study Protocol of a Randomized Controlled Trial

Study ID: NCT04965428

Study Description

Brief Summary: Few studies have tailored psychological intervention for fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) in young breast cancer patients, and the long-term efficacy of psychological intervention and its underlying mechanism are still unknown. To fill this knowledge gap, this protocol aims to evaluate the short-term and long-term effectiveness of Fear-focused Self-Compassion Therapy, as well as this therapy's psychological and physiological mechanisms in reducing severe FCR in young women with breast cancer. This study will be a randomized controlled trial recruiting 160 Chinese young female breast cancer patients with severe FCR. Participants will be randomized to the Fear-focused Self-Compassion Therapy group or control group (1:1). Measurement will be completed at baseline (T0), immediately completing intervention (T1), after 3 months (T2), after 6 months (T3) and after 12 months (T4). Primary outcomes are FCR severity; secondary outcomes are self-compassion, neurophysiological data (i.e., salivary alpha amylase and heart rate variability), attentional bias for FCR, rumination, catastrophizing thinking, and psychological symptoms. The Fear-focused Self-Compassion Therapy is based on the theories of FCR development and self-compassion, and consists of eight-week face to face group sessions.
