Collecting patient experiences in radiation oncology

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This project aims to enhance patient-centered care in radiation oncology by developing a tool to gather patient-reported outcome data regarding side effects experienced during and after radiotherapy. It will create a real-world evidence database to monitor and evaluate advancements in treatment technologies and protocols. The collected data will be pseudonymized and linked to existing oncological and dosimetric information systems, forming a foundation for future patient-oriented clinical developments.
