Summary

This study will compare the effectiveness of the Masterful supportive care intervention with that of the non-faith-based active control supportive care intervention, which uses the American Cancer Society's patient education materials, for Muslim patients who have advanced cancers.

All 3 sessions may occur within one week or over multiple weeks (nonconsecutively), depending on the participants preference. The participant will have up to 12 weeks from recruitment to complete all sessions and follow up surveys.
