Harnessing E-Mindfulness Approaches for Living After Breast Cancer-HEAL-ABC
NRG Oncology
Summary
NRG-CC015 is a prospective, randomized phase III clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of two distinct digital approaches for delivering a mindfulness-based intervention: a live, instructor-led version delivered over Zoom (MAPs LO), and an app-based, self-paced version (MAPs App). Participants will include younger breast cancer survivors (BCS) who were diagnosed with breast cancer at or before age 50 years, have completed their primary cancer treatment (i.e., surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy) at least 6 months earlier, and report elevated depressive symptoms.

This study will compare different digital approaches for mindfulness training to see which is the most effective. This study will also explore mediators and moderators of intervention effects, which is key for efficiently targeting psychological resources in…
