Using smartphones for patient symptom reporting during and after radiotherapy

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 study evaluates the effectiveness of routine electronic patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) collected via smartphones in cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. Participants will self-report their symptoms at various intervals during and after treatment, allowing radiation oncologists to monitor and address these symptoms in real-time. The study aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of this approach and its potential impact on improving patients' quality of life and health outcomes.
