About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study for Optimizing Mental Wellbeing and Heart Health for Black Patients With Prostate Cancer

Pilot study to determine the feasibility of providing psychosocial and cardiac rehabilitation services to address socioeconomic health disparities and improve wellbeing for black men with prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will see an oncology Associate Clinical Social Worker at Stanford's Cancer Center for a two hour psychosocial assessment. Subsequently participants will complete the psychosocial intake support session and elective additional counseling sessions (Part A) at the end of up to 8 counseling sessions (maximum sessions possible) or 20 weeks (+/- 4 weeks), whichever comes first. For participants who continue onto cardiac services (Part B), the participant will complete the cardiac rehabilitation exercise program within 12 weeks (+/- 2 weeks) of the first day of exercise start. The end of study will occur after the last cardiac rehabilitation exercise session (+ 2 weeks).
