Can weekly Check-Ins improve chemo tolerability for kidney cancer patients?
NCT ID NCT05592665
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study explores whether having kidney cancer patients report their side effects weekly through a short survey can help doctors manage those side effects better. The surveys ask about symptoms like nausea and fatigue and are sent directly to the care team, who then follow up if symptoms worsen. The goal is to see if this approach helps patients stay on their prescribed treatment without needing dose reductions or breaks.
