Study Summary
This study is a randomized clinical trial of a psychosocial pain management intervention called, Meaning-Centered Pain Coping Skills Training (MCPC). Patients with advanced solid tumor cancer and at least moderate pain will be randomized to MCPC or a standard care control condition. Patient-reported outcomes will be assessed at baseline and 5- and 10-week follow-ups. The first aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of conducting a randomized clinical trial to test MCPC. The second aim is to characterize MCPC's effects on patient-reported outcomes of pain severity, pain interference, meaning in life, self-efficacy for pain management, and psychological distress. The third aim is to describe participants' experiences of MCPC using semi-structured qualitative interviews. The risk and safety issues in this trial are low and limited to those common to a psychosocial intervention (e.g., loss of confidentiality).
Primary Outcome
Treatment feasibility will be evidenced by meeting study accrual (N = 60).
