New study: app and nurse calls ease chemo side effects for cancer patients
NCT ID NCT07405931
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a smartphone app that lets cancer patients report their symptoms, combined with regular calls from a specially trained nurse, can help them better manage chemotherapy side effects and improve their quality of life. The study includes 414 adults with early or advanced stomach, lung, breast, or colon cancer who are starting chemotherapy. Participants will use the app and receive nurse support, and researchers will measure their quality of life and ability to manage their own care.
