a Feasibility outcomes: The following hierarchy was used to determine which feasibility outcomes to include in the table: (1) one patient-level outcome and one systems-level outcome if available. Abbreviations: confidence interval (CI), control group (C), effect size (ES), intervention group (I), mean difference (MD), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), odds ratio (OR), oral anticancer (OA), standard deviation (SD), Simplified Medication Adherence Questionnaire (SMAQ). Note: outcome sample sizes are equal to sample sizes at baseline unless otherwise specified. For all outcomes, when multiple time points were recorded, we reported the longest available follow-up.
