ABSTRACT:

Background

Alcohol moderation (AM) interventions may contribute to better treatment outcomes and the general well-being of cancer survivors.

Objective

This study evaluates the effectiveness, cost-effectiveness, and cost-utility of MyCourse, a digital AM intervention, compared with a noninteractive digital information brochure for cancer survivors.
