Surgery care program for lung or upper GI cancer patients
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests an “integrative” support program around the time of cancer surgery to see if it improves care and outcomes for people having surgery for lung, stomach, or esophagus cancer. It may help by adding extra structured support during the peri-operative (around-surgery) period.
