ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is looking at how skin conditions affect the overall quality of life for cancer patients and survivors. Many cancer patients experience skin problems either because of their cancer or as a side effect of treatments like chemotherapy or radiation. By asking patients to fill out questionnaires about how they feel about their skin conditions, the researchers hope to gain insights into these issues and find ways to improve treatment for skin conditions in cancer patients.
To participate in this study, you need to be a cancer patient or survivor who has a skin condition related to your cancer or its treatment. Patients must be at least 3 years old, and family members or caregivers can also help by providing consent for minors. Participants will complete a questionnaire about their skin condition initially and may fill it out again during a follow-up visit if they receive treatment. This study is currently recruiting participants and aims to deepen our understanding of the challenges faced by cancer patients dealing with skin issues.
