Communication and care-planning support for blood cancer patients
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests an approach to help people with certain blood cancers and their main caregiver plan ahead and communicate more clearly about end-of-life care. It may help patients feel more supported and better prepared for difficult decisions.

This trial tests a telehealth (video or phone) program that helps people with certain blood cancers plan their future care preferences. It may help you and your chosen support person communicate your wishes clearly, especially if you become too sick to speak for yourself.
This study offers a palliative care team (doctors and nurses focused on comfort and quality of life) to people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma or with an aggressive lymphoma that has come back. The goal is to help manage symptoms early, so you feel better and stay stronger during your cancer treatment.
This study tests whether starting palliative and supportive care early (alongside cancer treatment) can improve comfort and support for people having stem cell transplant or CAR T-cell therapy. It may also help family caregivers by offering support during a difficult treatment period.
This trial studies whether adding palliative care (comfort-focused care to reduce stress and symptoms) helps people during adoptive cell therapy for blood cancers. It may help improve quality of life while you’re receiving the therapy.
This study tests whether a structured health education and “older adult care” approach—done with your oncology team—can improve support for people after cancer. It includes older cancer survivors and a chosen caregiver, using in-person or video visits for follow-up.
This study tests a mobile health app (PACT) to help people with advanced cancer talk and plan for future care. It may help you and a loved one stay engaged in advance care planning (planning what care you want and who should speak for you).
