NCT06028152 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of end-of-life conversation game "Hello" as a tool to help individuals with breast, lung, and/or genito-urinary cancers treated at Penn State Cancer Institute and their loved ones perform advance care planning. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What modifications and/or adaptations are necessary to Hello for use in cancer populations? * How do different delivery models compare for recruitment in terms of feasibility and efficiency? Participants will: * Complete pre-game questionnaires * Play the Hello game * Complete post-game questionnaires * Participate in a focus group

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06028152
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06028152 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 14 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, which has 277 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 3 conditions, with Breast Cancer appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which End-of-life conversation game called "Hello" is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06028152 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Pennsylvania. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
