NCT ID NCT07711080
First seen Jul 17, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026
Summary
This study explores whether cancer patients undergoing treatment can use a smartwatch and smartphone surveys to report their quality of life and physical activity. Over 12 weeks, participants wear a smartwatch at least 10 hours a day and complete questionnaires at several time points. The goal is to see if this approach is practical and acceptable for patients, which could pave the way for better remote monitoring in future cancer trials.

- If successful, this approach could make it easier for doctors to monitor how cancer treatment affects patients' daily lives and physical function in real time.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small feasibility study, so it may not prove that the method works for all patients or that it improves outcomes. Technical issues or low patient compliance could limit the findings.
