Music Therapy vs. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Cancer-related Anxiety (MELODY)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The researchers are doing this study to compare how music therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, given virtually, may be able to reduce anxiety in people who have had cancer. In addition, this study will see if certain factors affect how well participants respond to music therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy. For example, the researchers will see if personal characteristics (like age, sex, race, and education) and ways of thinking (like expectations of therapy) may affect how well participants respond.
