Technology-Supported Behavioral Activation to Optimize Day-to-Day Quality of Life with Advanced Cancer

The aims of this project are to (1) adapt behavioral activation to help patients living with advanced cancer to optimize their daily quality of life, to be delivered primarily via smartphone, and to incorporate personalized, data-driven feedback and objective activity monitoring, and (2) examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of this adapted intervention in a single-arm trial of patients receiving treatment for Stage IV cancer.
