Brief Summary:
The proposed study seeks to develop and test a novel psychosocial pain management intervention for patients with advanced cancer. It is hypothesized that the intervention will demonstrate feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy. The first aim is to develop a combined pain coping skills training and meaning-centered psychotherapy intervention. The second aim is to test the intervention's feasibility and acceptability as well as preliminary efficacy for improving primary outcomes (i.e., pain, pain interference, and meaning in life) and secondary outcomes. Two efficacious, theory-driven interventions will be integrated to address pain management by teaching pain coping skills with a novel emphasis on enhancing a sense of meaning in life. Participants will be patients with advanced cancer and moderate-to-severe pain. The study will be conducted in two phases. Phase I of the study will be intervention development. The intervention content will be guided by theory and mentoring from a team of leading experts in pain management and meaning-centered psychotherapy. Initial intervention content will be further informed by interviews with patients with advanced cancer. Content will then be refined through an iterative patient testing process. Phase II of the study will be a single-arm pilot trial testing the intervention. The intervention will be delivered in-person and consist of four, 45-to-60 minute therapy sessions delivered using videoconferencing technology. Study measures will be collected at baseline (0 weeks), immediately post-intervention (5 weeks), and 4-weeks post-intervention (9 weeks).
Detailed Description:
Effective pain management is a major healthcare concern for patients with advanced cancer. Compared to patients with early-stage disease, those with advanced cancer report higher levels of pain and greater functional impairment related to pain. There is a critical need for psychosocial pain management interventions that are specifically designed to address the suffering of patients with advanced cancer. The proposed study seeks to develop and assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a novel integration of pain coping skills training and meaning-centered psychotherapy for patients with advanced cancer and moderate-to-severe pain.
