Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms. - Arm I (self-administered stress management training plus usual psychosocial care): Patients receive a video DVD, audio CD, and brochure that provides information and instruction in 3 stress management training techniques (progressive muscle relaxation training and guided imagery, abdominal breathing, and coping skills training) to use during chemotherapy. Patients also receive usual psychosocial care.
- Arm II (usual psychosocial care only): Patients receive usual psychosocial care.
Patients complete questionnaires to assess mood, quality of life, and other factors at baseline and before chemotherapy courses 2, 3, and 4.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol. Back to Top |
