Summary
This trial tests whether a wearable sensor called the Alio Smart Patch can help catch early signs of febrile neutropenia, a serious infection risk from chemotherapy. Thirty adults with certain cancers will wear the patch and a glucose monitor at home, with a remote care team watching their data 24/7. The goal is to see if this constant monitoring can spot problems sooner and improve patient safety.
