Protocol for a multisite, parallel-group, randomized clinical trial comparing a brief tele-cognitive behavioral therapy intervention (BRIGHT) with attention control for the reduction of body image-related distress among head and neck cancer survivors
Overview
This resource outlines the protocol for a multisite, parallel-group randomized clinical trial evaluating the BRIGHT intervention, a brief tele-cognitive behavioral therapy designed to reduce body image-related distress in head and neck cancer survivors. The study compares six weeks of BRIGHT against an attention control group of survivorship education among 180 participants, with outcomes measured at baseline and up to nine months post-randomization. It is intended for researchers or clinicians interested in the methodological design and primary endpoints of this specific efficacy trial.
