Study Description

Brief Summary: The proposed pilot randomized controlled trial will test the FACT (Families Addressing Cancer Together) intervention designed to improve parents' confidence and ability to talk about their cancer with their minor children. We will enroll 40 patients with cancer who have a minor child to participate in this single site, 6-week study. The primary hypothesis being tested is that an intervention that assists parents with their communication needs with their children can be feasible and acceptable when compared with a wait-list control condition.

Detailed Description: Parents with cancer are encouraged to be "honest and open" with their minor children about their illness. However, many lack access to professional support for their communication needs. Without this support, parents with cancer and their children experience avoidable psychosocial distress. In order to better support parental communication needs in cancer, psychosocial interventions that can be implemented across clinical practice settings are needed. To address this gap, we developed and pilot-tested FACT (Families Addressing Cancer Together) - a theory-guided, web-based psycho-educational intervention to help parents with cancer talk about their illness with their children in a developmentally appropriate way. The proposed pilot randomized controlled trial will test the feasibility and acceptability of the FACT intervention. We will enroll 40 patients with cancer who have a minor child to participate in this single site, 6-week study. The primary hypothesis being tested is that an intervention that assists parents with their communication needs with their children can be feasible and acceptable when compared with a wait-list control condition. We will also explore preliminary effects of the intervention on parental communication and psychological outcomes.
