Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Able to speak, read and understand English well enough to complete study assessments and interviews in the judgement of the consenting professional
  • 18 years of age and older
  • Be seen regularly (at least monthly) at an MSKCC GI medical oncology clinic
  • Has an exocrine GI cancer with MSKCC pathology confirmation at the primary or metastatic anatomic site
  • Non-metastatic GI cancers are eligible only if the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status54 is 2,3, or 4 at the time of consent (although patients with locally advanced \[stage III\] and inoperable pancreatic cancers are eligible regardless of their performance status)
  • Has a metastatic neuroendocrine histology with MSKCC pathology confirmation as moderately or poorly differentiated or intermediate or high grade
  • A referring physician's estimate of patient life expectancy must be between 1-12 months. We use this life expectancy range in order to ensure some degree of subject homogeneity for the purpose of sample size and methodologic design. Also, these timeframes were chosen in order to test an intervention in patients with serious illness (under 1 year prognosis).
  • Part 2 Only: Did not complete Part 1 of the study.

Exclusion

  • Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire (SPMSQ) score of less than "intact mental functioning" (3 or more errors).
  • Significant psychiatric or cognitive disturbance sufficient, in the consenting professional's or investigator's judgment, to preclude providing informed consent or participating in the interventions (i.e., acute psychiatric symptoms which require individual treatment).
