ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how using smartphones to report symptoms can help improve the quality of life for cancer patients during and after their radiotherapy treatment. Participants will be asked to share their experiences and any symptoms they have through a simple app on their smartphones while they are receiving treatment and for three months afterward. The information collected will help doctors understand how well patients are doing and may lead to better care based on their feedback.

To participate in this study, you must be at least 18 years old and have a confirmed diagnosis of cancer. It’s important that you are able to use a smartphone to share your symptoms. Unfortunately, if you have terminal cancer or have trouble understanding or using a smartphone, you won't be eligible for this trial. If you join, you can expect regular check-ins about your health and the chance to help improve cancer care for yourself and others.
