Okay, I’ve read the provided text. It describes the PRISM-AC study, an intervention designed to improve resilience, hope, and quality of life in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with advanced cancer. The study involved core sessions focused on skills like goal-setting and communication, a family meeting, and an additional module on advance care planning. The results showed immediate improvements in resilience and hope in the intervention group, with sustained improvements in quality of life, depression, and anxiety over time. The intervention also seemed to empower AYAs to participate more actively in their healthcare decisions, including end-of-life care. The average age of participants was around 16.5 years old.
