NCT05696457

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test passive music therapy in patients receiving induction chemotherapy for an acute myeloblastic leukemia or undergoing an hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The main questions it aims to answer are: \- Can music therapy control physical and psychological symptoms and improve the mood and quality of life of these patients? Participants will be randomly assigned to the control and experimental group. Patients included in both groups will complete weekly mood and quality of life questionnaires. Those included in the experimental group will also complete daily symptom burden questionnaires before and after listening to a music therapy session. Researchers will confirm if the experimental group improves their symptoms after the music therapy session and will compare both groups to see if there are differences in mood and quality of life.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in physical and psychological symptom burden

    Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS) global score (0 to 110 points, higher scores mean higher symptom burden)

    The ESAS global score is measured before and after the daily music therapy session (from date of randomization until the date of discharge, up to 8 weeks)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Anxiety and depression assessed by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) score

    Once a week (from date of randomization until the date of discharge, up to 8 weeks)

  • Quality of life assessed by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - General (FACT-G) score

    Once a week (from date of randomization until the date of discharge, up to 8 weeks)
