Smart bottles & video calls aim to keep cancer patients on track

NCT ID NCT04054557

Summary

This study tested whether using technology could help breast cancer patients stick to their long-term hormone therapy after surgery. Researchers compared standard doctor visits to two tech-based approaches: one using automated symptom surveys with follow-up video calls, and another using smart pill bottles that send reminders. The goal was to see if these tools improved medication adherence and quality of life for 305 participants over one year.
