First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a mobile app can help breast and colorectal cancer survivors after they finish primary treatment. The app provides information and resources to support follow-up care. Researchers will track how many people join, how often they use the app, and gather feedback from survivors and healthcare providers. The goal is to see if this approach is practical and helpful.
