About this study
Official title: The Effect of Music Therapy on the Radiotherapy Experience of Cancer Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy: A Randomised Controlled Trial
The goal of this randomized controlled clinical study is to learn about the effects of music therapy on anxiety, stress, pain, and patient satisfaction in cancer patients who are newly starting radiotherapy (radiation treatment).
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Read more
Can music therapy lower the levels of anxiety and stress in patients receiving radiotherapy? Can music therapy improve the pain felt during the radiotherapy experience and overall satisfaction? Researchers will compare patients receiving standard radiotherapy (control group) with patients receiving music therapy alongside their radiotherapy (experimental group).
Participants (72 total) will:
Be 18 years and older and newly starting curative radiotherapy. Answer short surveys (STAI-SF, SDT, VAS) to measure their anxiety, stress, and pain levels before and after treatment.
Participants in the experimental group will receive a 15-20 minute music therapy session consisting of meditative and instrumental music during their first radiotherapy session.
This study aims to provide reliable data to guide clinical practice by showing whether music therapy offers a multifaceted approach to managing the psychological and physical challenges associated with cancer treatment.
Read the detailed description
This study is a single-blind randomized controlled trial 20202020evaluating the effect of music therapy in managing the emotional and physical difficulties experienced by cancer patients who are newly starting curative radiotherapy (RT).Study Site: The study will take place at the Kocaeli University Hospital Radiation Oncology Unit.Objectives: The primary aim is to examine the effect of music therapy on anxiety, stress, pain, and patient satisfaction, and to determine how it can improve the RT experience.Intervention Application:Timing and Duration: Music therapy will be administered during the first RT session in sessions lasting 15-20 minutes. (Literature reports that $<20$ minutes reduces anxiety ).Provider: The intervention will be administered by a certified music therapist. Music Selection: Patients will be asked to choose music that has a meditative effect, is instrumental (without lyrics), and lacks peaks (sudden attacks), based on their preference and inclination. The music options provided will include Far Eastern music, music accompanied by a light-beat rhythm instrument (bendir), Ney-heavy Mesnevi music with meditative effects, and meditative Saba makam music.Listening Method: The patient's selected music will be played via headphones for 15 minutes before the session, and as ambient listening during the session. For patients with head and neck or brain cancer, only ambient listening will be used during the procedure for consistency.Data Collection and Timeline:Measurement Location: Measurements will be taken by researchers at the Kocaeli University Radiation Oncology Unit.Study Duration: The study starts on December 1, 2025, and ends on January31, 2026, with a total duration of 7 months.
Statistical Analysis:The collected data will be analyzed using the following methods: Between-group comparisons: Independent Sample T-test or Mann-Whitney U test37.Pre-post changes: Repeated Measures ANOVA.The significance level is set at $p<0.05.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Music TherapyOther
Intervention: A personalized 15-20 minute music listening session is administered by a certified music therapist during the first session of radiotherapy.
Patients select from a list of meditative, instrumental (wordless), and music that lacks peaks (sudden attacks).
Music is presented via headphones before the session and as ambient listening during the session.
Standard Care (in control arm)Other
Intervention: These patients do not receive the music therapy intervention during their radiotherapy treatment.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Music Therapy Group (Experimental Arm) | Experimental | Description: Consists of patients receiving curative radiotherapy (RT) who receive the music therapy intervention in addition to standard care to improve their radiotherapy experience. Receives: Other: Music Therapy |
| Control Group (Standard Care Arm) | Active comparator | Description: Consists of patients receiving curative radiotherapy (RT) who receive only the standard radiation oncology care as per hospital protocol during their treatment. Receives: Other: Standard Care (in control arm) |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change in Anxiety Level (STAI-SF)
ssessment of the effect of the music therapy intervention on the anxiety levels of cancer patients receiving curative radiotherapy, using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-Short Form (STAI-SF). The measured difference will be compared between the intervention group and the control group.
Measured: mmediately before the start of the radiotherapy session (Pre-test) and immediately after the end of the radiotherapy session (Post-test).
Change in Stress Level (SDT)
Assessment of the effect of the music therapy intervention on the general distress/stress levels experienced by cancer patients receiving curative radiotherapy, using the Symptom Distress Thermometer (SDT). The measured difference will be compared between the intervention group and the control group.
Measured: Immediately before the start of the radiotherapy session (Pre-test) and immediately after the end of the radiotherapy session (Post-test).
Secondary outcomes (2)
Change in Procedural Pain Level (VAS)
Assessment of the effect of the music therapy intervention on the severity of pain felt during or related to the radiotherapy procedure, using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The measured difference will be compared between the groups.
Measured: Immediately before the start of the radiotherapy session (Pre-test) and immediately after the end of the radiotherapy session
Patient Satisfaction Level (VAS)
Assessment of the effect of the music therapy intervention on patients' overall satisfaction levels with their radiotherapy experience, using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Satisfaction scores will be compared between the groups.
Measured: Immediately after the end of the radiotherapy session (Post-test).

The goal of this randomized controlled clinical study is to learn about the effects of music therapy on anxiety, stress, pain, and patient satisfaction in cancer patients who are newly starting radiotherapy (radiation treatment).
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Can music therapy lower the levels of anxiety and stress in patients receiving radiotherapy? Can music therapy improve the pain felt during the radiotherapy experience and overall satisfaction? Researchers will compare patients receiving standard radiotherapy (control group) with patients receiving music therapy alongside their radiotherapy (experimental group).
Participants (72 total) will:
Be 18 years and older and newly starting curative radiotherapy. Answer short surveys (STAI-SF, SDT, VAS) to measure their anxiety, stress, and pain levels before and after treatment.
Participants in the experimental group will receive a 15-20 minute music therapy session consisting of meditative and instrumental music during their first radiotherapy session.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change in Anxiety Level (STAI-SF) (time frame: mmediately before the start of the radiotherapy session (Pre-test) and immediately after the end of the radiotherapy session (Post-test).). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07261267, which also lists 11 linked publications.
