Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults aged 26 to 79 with a newly confirmed, untreated acute leukemia who are hospitalized at Centre Henri Becquerel and able to give informed consent are ideal candidates.

Probably not a fit

Patients with psychiatric illness, relapse or prior recent cancer, substance abuse, legal guardianship, or those enrolled in conflicting trials are excluded and unlikely to benefit from this intervention.

What this trial studies

This is a randomized interventional study comparing a short period of structured, nurse-delivered care support given soon after the announcement of an acute leukemia diagnosis to usual care. Eligible adult patients (26–79 years) with a new, untreated acute leukemia hospitalized at Centre Henri Becquerel who can consent are randomized to receive the accompaniment within 7 days or to a control group. Anxiety and quality of life (QLQ-C30) are measured at baseline (T0), again shortly after the intervention or equivalent time (T1), and at two months (±3 days) after ICU admission (T2), with satisfaction and program-evaluation questionnaires collected at T2. The primary outcome is change in anxiety between groups, and both groups receive usual medical care throughout.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the program could lower short-term anxiety and improve quality of life for patients after an acute leukemia diagnosis.

How similar studies have gone: Nurse-led and psychosocial support interventions have reduced anxiety in other cancer settings, but formalized accompaniment specifically at acute leukemia diagnosis is relatively untested.
