This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether young adults (ages 18–39) preparing for a stem cell transplant, along with their caregivers, benefit from having a series of thoughtful conversations about their personal values, wishes, and care preferences. Researchers want to learn if these conversations are helpful and acceptable to patients, families, and doctors, and whether they can be woven into regular transplant care.
Many young adults who receive stem cell transplants don't get the chance to discuss what matters most to them until it's too late. This study exists to figure out how to start these important conversations earlier, so doctors, patients, and families are all on the same page about the person's wishes and goals.
You will meet with a trained interviewer three times at scheduled points during your transplant journey to have conversations about your values, preferences, and what matters most to you. You'll also complete brief questionnaires before and after these conversations. Your designated caregiver will participate in these conversations with you, and afterward, your transplant care team will be asked to share their thoughts through a survey.
