Acceptance and commitment therapy for adults with advanced cancer (CanACT): A feasibility randomised controlled trial
Overview
This paper reports on a feasibility randomized controlled trial evaluating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for adults with advanced cancer. The study assessed recruitment viability, intervention delivery, and outcome measure acceptability among hospice patients with low functional scores. Results indicate that recruiting this population is feasible, though the trial was underpowered to determine clinical effectiveness.
