Mental health evaluations in cancer patients and families
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how mental health affects people with cancer and their families. It compares different groups—such as people with cancer and a mental health condition, their relatives, and people without cancer—to better understand and support their mental health needs.
