      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Randomization is done by simple randomization method and generating random values between zero and one in the spss software. To assign random values to the intervention or control group using the lottery, values less than or equal to 0.5 are assigned to group A and values greater than 0.5 are assigned to group B. Then, by a person independent of the research team code 70 envelopes (based on the codes obtained in the above randomization method) and a list of codes is specified. In the envelope, based on the above method, a new treatment or standard treatment (conventional) will be written and, according to the entry of eligible patients, will be given to patients in the clinic to give an oncologist. The therapist provides the necessary prescriptions based on the groupings done for each patient. In the meantime, the researcher does not know which patient,in which group A or B, is, Blinding description: The secretary introduced the patients to the oncologist using a randomized grouping and the oncologist provided treatments for both groups according to the  grouping done.The investigator,in collaboration with the oncologist,supervised the patient's use of the drug. After  collecting the questionnaire data was completed by the patients, the data was analyzed by a statistician specialist with respect to the confidentiality of the grouping.</study_design>
