First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study is testing whether cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy can use an iPhone app and Apple Watch to report symptoms from home. Researchers will enroll 100 adults with solid tumors or blood cancers to see if they can consistently use the technology. The goal is to learn if remote monitoring is practical and how often patients should be asked about their symptoms.
