简要总结
To find out if combining psychoeducational interventions (such as education, counseling, and self-managed therapies) with an open-label placebo can help to improve your quality of life better than either the psychoeducational interventions or the placebo alone.
详细描述
Primary Objectives:
1. To determine if the combination therapy of PI with OLP (combination therapy group) is superior to PI alone group in the treatment of cancer-related fatigue (CRF) as measured by the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) scale.
We hypothesize that the combination of OLP+PI in these patients will result in a greater reduction of CRF compared to PI alone.
Secondary Objectives:
1. To determine if Combination Therapy group is superior to PI Only group for the treatment of CRF at 3 months and 6 months after treatment. We hypothesize that the combination of OLP+PI in these patients will result in a greater reduction of CRF after 3 months and 6 months after treatment
