An Internet-based Program to Help Cancer Survivors Manage Pain

This study compares a web-based pain management program with usual care to see which helps cancer survivors with ongoing pain better. Cancer survivors are people who have had cancer and are living after treatment. The study looks at how much pain people feel and how pain affects their daily lives. It also examines if this program changes how people use pain medicine, their quality of life, and other health aspects like sleep and emotions. The study lasts 9 months and involves 250 participants, split into two groups: one using the internet program and the other receiving usual care.

  • The study lasts for 9 months, with follow-up check-ins.
  • Participants must be 18 or older and have internet access.
  • Compensation details are not specified.

To join, you must have had invasive cancer and be experiencing cancer-related pain. You need to be able to read and understand English and have reliable internet access. Certain health conditions or ongoing substance issues may prevent participation. The study offers a chance to try a new way to manage pain using the internet.
