This pilot, randomized controlled trial assesses the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of the Stress Management and Resiliency - Relaxation Response Resiliency Program (SMART-3RP) for improving resiliency and decreasing distress among caregivers and cancer survivors compared to enhanced usual care.
Participants will be randomly assigned into one of the study groups: Smart-3RP versus referral to a group-based, online support group. Randomization means that a participant is placed into a group by chance.
Participation in this study is expected to last about 180 days.
It is expected about 96 people made up of 48 patients and 48 caregivers will take part in this research study.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is supporting this research by providing funding.
