Study Summary

This pilot clinical trial studies the feasibility and effectiveness of a new computer-based communication intervention in supporting distance caregivers of patients with advanced lung or brain cancer. Unlike local caregivers, distance caregivers often receive little, if any, professional support and have limited communication with the oncology team. Using a computer-based communication intervention to allow distance caregivers the opportunity to participate in a physician visit, have questions and concerns addressed, and meet members of the oncology team may help reduce stress.

Primary Outcome

Regression analysis will be run to explore the influence of primary stressors and structural factors on patient and caregiver outcomes (anxiety and distress).
