NCT ID NCT06013176
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether sending reminders to cancer patients and alerts to their nurses helps them complete regular symptom questionnaires. Over 476 patients starting a new cancer therapy were split into three groups: usual care, reminders plus nurse alerts during clinic visits, or the same approach but done remotely. The goal was to see if these simple behavioral nudges improve how often patients report their symptoms.
