Abstract

Background: We adapted a previously-successful intervention, StoryListening, to a group setting for LGBTQ+ cancer survivors.

Objective: Our goal was to assess the feasibility and acceptability of the QT (Queer/Trans) Cancer StoryListening Workshop.

Methods: We conducted a single-arm pilot feasibility trial of QT Cancer StoryListening for LGBTQ+ cancer survivors in September, 2025. Feasibility was assessed by enrollment and questionnaire completion data. Acceptability was evaluated using self-report questionnaires with both closed-ended and open-ended items. We used a mixed methods analytic approach, including both descriptive statistics and deductive thematic content analysis.

Results: Twelve individuals responded with interest in 5 wk of community outreach; 10 (83%) attended the workshop and 8 completed follow-up questionnaires (80%). Participants identified no emotional or logistical difficulty in participating and all identified value, particularly around the community aspect of the workshop. LGBTQ+ cancer survivors lack specifically-tailored support.

Conclusion: StoryListening is a brief, scalable intervention that is both feasible and acceptable to LGBTQ+ cancer survivors.

支持LGBTQ+癌症幸存者的群体干预的可行性和可接受性：QT癌症故事倾听。

背景：我们对LGBTQ+癌症幸存者的群体设置采用了先前成功的干预措施——故事倾听。目的：我们的目的是评估QT（酷儿/跨性别）癌症故事聆听工作坊的可行性和可接受性。方法：我们于2025年9月对LGBTQ+癌症幸存者进行了QT癌症故事倾听的单臂试点可行性试验。通过入组和问卷完成情况评估可行性。可接受性评估使用自我报告问卷与封闭式和开放式项目。我们使用混合方法分析方法，包括描述性统计和演绎主题内容分析。结果：在为期5周的社区外展活动中，有12人有兴趣回应；10人（83%）参加工作坊，8人（80%）完成随访问卷。参与者认为参与没有情感或后勤方面的困难，所有人都确定了讲习班的价值，特别是在社区方面。LGBTQ+癌症幸存者缺乏专门定制的支持。结论：对于LGBTQ+癌症幸存者来说，故事倾听是一种简短、可扩展的干预方法，既可行又可接受。
