About
This is a research study to develop and test a novel protocol to reduce physical and psychological vulnerabilities that contribute to treatment intolerance and treatment-related morbidity and mortality among hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) patients. When the participant enrolls in this study, they will be asked to participate in acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) as well as complete in-person physical function tests and a cognitive test. They will also receive training on how to use iOS devices (e.g. iPad, iPhone) and activity trackers (e.g. Apple Watch), which will be provided to them during the duration of study participation. The study team will ask you to complete multiple surveys about emotional and cognitive function, diet and social support, and ask the participant to provide feedback about the treatment (e.g., what they liked or did not like). The study team will also ask the participant to provide stool samples for analysis of the bacteria in intestines, skin surface swabs for analysis of the bacteria on skin and blood samples for analysis of biomarkers and metabolites. Biomarkers and metabolites are molecular and cellular parts that deal with genetic makeup, like DNA, RNA, protein, and/or other naturally occurring substances that may be associated with transplant outcomes. Participants can expect to be enrolled in this study for 3 years.
