Summary
This trial will study if a 4-month, 6-session coaching program helps older cancer patients. The sessions will last 1-2 hours, and happen every 1-2 weeks.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals aged 65 or older who have been diagnosed with cancer and are starting or within the first three months of oral cancer treatments. They must be able to consent, speak English, and identify at least one person from their social network to join them in the program.
What is being tested?
The SONATA program is being tested to see if it helps older adults with cancer by providing social support through coaching sessions. Participants will engage in six sessions over approximately four months aimed at enhancing trust and adherence to treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
Since SONATA is a social support intervention rather than a medication, there may not be physical side effects like those associated with drugs. However, participants might experience emotional discomfort discussing personal issues during sessions.
