Help Shape the Future of Integrative Cancer Care!

Have you received a cancer diagnosis within the past five years? Have you used complementary therapies alongside conventional cancer treatment?

 

Researchers from CancerChoices/Commonweal and the UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center invite you to participate in a study exploring how cancer survivors use complementary and integrative approaches as part of their cancer care.

 

About the Study

This research seeks to better understand the experiences of cancer survivors who use complementary approaches, such as yoga, meditation, acupuncture, nutritional therapies, and other supportive practices, alongside conventional cancer treatment.

 

Findings will help inform educational resources for patients and healthcare providers and improve understanding of how these approaches are used in real-world cancer care.

 

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to participate if you:

  • Are 18 years of age or older.

  • Have received a cancer diagnosis within the past five years.

  • Currently use or have previously used complementary therapies alongside conventional cancer treatment.

  • Reside in Northern California.

 

What Does Participation Involve?

  • Completing a confidential online survey (approximately 20–30 minutes).

  • Receiving a $25 gift card within 1–2 weeks after completing the survey.

  • Having the opportunity to participate in an optional 60-minute follow-up interview.
