Summary

This study tests a telemedicine program called FOCUS that helps advanced cancer patients manage common symptoms like trouble sleeping, worry, tiredness, and low mood. The program uses counseling techniques delivered through a phone app. Researchers will enroll 120 adults with advanced lung, breast, prostate, or other cancers, especially those living in rural areas.
