研究概览
简要总结
This pilot clinical trial studies how well comic art creation works as supportive care in cancer patients and caregivers. Participating in a comic art creation workshop may help patients and their family members or friends share their medical experience through storytelling and drawings in a way that can, but does not have to, reflect the real world. It may also help improve emotional wellbeing and communication in cancer patients and caregivers.

研究组 & 干预措施
Workshop A (10 weeks - comic art creation workshop)
Patients and a family member, caretaker, or friend participate in an artist-led comic art therapy workshop over 2 hours once a week for 10 weeks. Patients and participants receive a range of assignments that focus on creative art and experimentation with materials and storytelling in order to make a series of small handmade books that relate directly or indirectly to their experience with cancer. Patients undergo a qualitative interview over approximately 45 minutes and complete validated questionnaires within 4 weeks prior to the workshop and midway through the workshop.

结局指标
主要结局
Feasibility of the comic art creation workshop defined as participant completion and psychosocial value of the comic art
时间窗: Up to 1.5 years
The project will be considered feasible if most of the participants complete the study and consider the comic art to have personal meaning, and if an initial power calculation indicates that a sufficiently powered randomized controlled trial is possible given the resources of the study team. It is anticipated that the psychosocial value of the art will be largely derived from the internal creation process and further assessment of the artistic products will not be conducted.
次要结局
- Change in anxiety and depression as measured by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale questionnaire(Baseline to up to 6 weeks post-workshop)
- Change in health-related quality of life (HRQOL) as measured by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30(Baseline to up to 6 weeks post-workshop)
