About this study

In plain language

This study tests whether a 12-week cooking and nutrition program is practical and well liked. It is for Hispanic prostate cancer survivors and their unpaid caregivers, who take part together.

This study will determine the feasibility and acceptability of a 12-week dyadic culinary nutrition program among Hispanic prostate cancer survivor/caregiver dyads using a randomized controlled trial design.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
