App-Based symptom tracking may prevent dangerous weight loss in cancer patients
NCT ID NCT07190755
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether using a smartphone app to regularly report symptoms can help doctors catch problems early and reduce severe weight loss in head and neck cancer patients undergoing curative radiation or chemoradiation. About 192 adults will be enrolled. The goal is to see if remote monitoring leads to better nutrition and fewer complications during treatment.
