NCT ID NCT01503632

Ongoing Disease control Sponsor: Children's Oncology Group Source: ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Summary

This study tested a comprehensive support program to help children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) take their daily oral chemotherapy medication more consistently. It compared a high-tech program with smart pill bottles and text reminders against standard education alone. The goal was to see if better medication adherence could lower the risk of the cancer returning.
