Interventions

  • Group Self-Management Sessions — BEHAVIORAL
    Our targeted self-management intervention will be delivered virtually through eight 90-minute sessions over a 3-4-month period using materials adapted from previous focus groups of people with brain cancer and an expert design panel. A nurse educator and peer educator will facilitate the virtual sessions. The content covers topics focused on how to improve the quality of life in people diagnosed with brain cancer.
  • Educational Materials Only — OTHER
    Self-management content specifically designed for people with brain cancer will be uploaded into a learning management system. The content will be broken up into modules that will be unlocked at the same frequency as the self-management group sessions arm. There are no group sessions involved, and there are no nurse or peer educators to lead the participants through this content.

Study Details

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the newly designed group self-management program is feasible to conduct and improves mental and behavioral health outcomes compared to a control group in people diagnosed with brain cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is it feasible to conduct this program? * Does the new group self-management program improve behavioral health outcomes more than in the control group that will not be in a group setting?
