Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT-HBC) for the Improvement of Cancer Distress in Patients With Hepatobiliary Cancers

Sponsor: Mayo Clinic

Summary

This clinical trial studies whether Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for patients with hepatobiliary cancers (ACT-HBC) can be used to help improve cancer distress. Patients with hepatobiliary cancer (HBC) often experience high levels of distress and reductions in quality of life. ACT-HBC is a behavioral intervention tailored to patients with HBC. It helps patients cope with difficult thoughts and emotions while staying connected to what matters most in life, which may be an effective way to improve cancer distress.
