Summary

This study aimed to compare a virtual voice agent with a human agent for teaching cancer patients how to use remote monitoring devices at home. Patients with lung cancer would have been randomly assigned to get instructions from either the virtual agent or a human over the phone. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
