The LONGEVITI Study wants to understand what it's really like to live with chronic targeted cancer treatments — the kind you take over months or years. Rather than just collecting medical data, researchers are asking participants to share their personal experiences and create something creative (like art, music, writing, or video) that captures how this treatment affects their everyday life.
Most research focuses on whether medications work medically, but very little is known about how long-term cancer treatment actually changes a person's daily life, emotions, and relationships. This study aims to fill that gap by listening to patients' real stories.

You'll start with one interview (in person, by phone, or video call) where you'll talk about your experiences with your cancer treatment. Over the next three months, you'll reflect on how the medication affects your daily life and create something creative to express that — it could be a drawing, a piece of writing, a song, a video, or any mix of creative work that feels right to you. Then you'll likely share that with the researchers.
