Phase N/A

This study is testing a new web-based program called CRCweb for people with colorectal cancer who are getting chemotherapy, and their caregivers. Colorectal cancer is a type of cancer that affects the colon and rectum. Chemotherapy is a treatment that uses drugs to kill cancer cells. People with this cancer often have symptoms like feeling very tired, sad, trouble sleeping, pain, and trouble thinking clearly. These symptoms can make life harder for both patients and their caregivers. The study will check if CRCweb can help make these symptoms better and improve life quality. Caregivers are family or friends who help the patients. CRCweb is a program they will use online together. The study will last 8 weeks, with interviews and surveys during this time.

  • Duration: 8 weeks of using the web program.
  • Participation: Includes interviews and surveys.
  • Eligibility: Must be 18+, have internet access, and speak English.
