Efficacy of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Anxiety, Depression, and Fatigue in Cancer Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Overview
This randomized clinical trial compares the efficacy of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for managing anxiety, depression, and fatigue in cancer patients. The study involved 60 eligible participants assigned to MBCT, CBT, or a wait-list control group, with outcomes measured using standardized inventories before and after eight weekly sessions. Results indicate that both therapies significantly reduced anxiety and depression compared to the control, with no significant difference between the two active treatments for these symptoms. However, CBT demonstrated superior effectiveness in reducing fatigue compared to MBCT.
