NCT ID NCT06364748

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This completed trial tested whether a cellular-enabled blood pressure cuff, used at home, could help cancer patients on the drug bevacizumab better track and manage high blood pressure. Twenty participants were randomly assigned to use the smart cuff or a standard cuff. The goal was to see if remote monitoring improves how often patients check their blood pressure and how quickly doctors can respond to dangerous readings.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Cellular-enabled blood pressure cuff
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could make it easier for cancer patients to monitor their blood pressure at home and catch dangerous spikes early.
What could go wrong
This was a very small, completed trial with only 20 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The technology depends on patient ability to use the cuff correctly.
