Personalized Health Self-Management Training for Colorectal Cancer Survivors

A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled, Double-Arm Study of RISE (Re-Invent, Integrate, Strengthen, Expand) Personalized Self-Management Training (PSMT) Compared to Standardized Self-Management Training (SSMT) in Gastrointestinal Cancer (GI) Patients

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 8 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a Phase 2 prospective, randomized, controlled, double-arm study to assess personalized self-management training (PSMT) intervention efficacy and patient experiences compared to standardized self-management training (SSMT). A total of 120 gastrointestinal (GI) cancer patients will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to complete a 6-week self-management training program (either PSMT or SSMT) to be carried out by licensed occupational therapists with doctoral training. This study aims to examine whether PSMT is more effective in increasing adherence to healthy behavior recommendations compared to SSMT in GI cancer patients.
