Smart scales could help keep blood cancer patients safe at home
NCT ID NCT06133426
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a connected scale can help monitor blood cancer patients (with lymphoma or myeloma) during chemotherapy. Thirty patients will weigh themselves daily for about 7 weeks, and their data will be sent to their medical team. The goal is to see if this approach is feasible and if it helps catch problems early.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- connected scale device
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that remote monitoring with a connected scale helps detect health changes early in blood cancer patients, potentially improving care.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early feasibility study with only 30 participants and no comparison group, so results may not apply broadly. The device may not be easy for all patients to use.
