简要总结
The purpose of this study is to develop and tailor an intervention program to improve the quality of life in women living with metastatic breast cancer. In the first phase of this study, we conducted patient focus groups to gather information about the unique challenges of living with MBC and what kinds of support women would like to receive in a tailored Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) intervention. In the second phase of the study, we will conduct a three-arm randomized controlled trial to the tailored ACT intervention with both a Cognitive Behavioral Stress Management (CBSM) intervention and usual care. The CBSM and ACT intervention groups will meet with a trained facilitator and 8-9 other patients, once per week via videoconference for 90 minute sessions over the course of 8 weeks.
