Using machine learning to improve pain assessment in advanced cancer
Part of Cancer, Pain clinical trials.
This trial looks at how a computer “learns” to better understand and assess cancer pain at home. It may help people with advanced cancer get more accurate pain evaluation while they are receiving pain treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Have advanced cancer and are expected to live 1 year or less
- Be receiving treatment for cancer pain
- Be able and willing to give consent to join the study

This study uses artificial intelligence to better understand and measure pain in people with chronic pain. The goal is to develop smarter ways to assess pain automatically, which could lead to better treatment.
This study builds a database of videos and voice recordings from people with cancer, both with and without pain. The goal is to train artificial intelligence (AI) to automatically recognize pain, which could help doctors better manage it in the future.
This trial tests whether a special website or app can help people with cancer do a better job managing their pain. If you have moderate or severe cancer pain that needs morphine and you can use a simple app to track your symptoms, this may help you feel better.
This study tests a special app that combines a relaxing garden game with pain management techniques and medication support. It aims to help people with advanced cancer feel more in control of their pain and improve their quality of life.
This study tests whether a digital health-education program can help cancer patients better manage their pain and take their pain medications as prescribed. If you are experiencing moderate to severe pain from a solid tumor and are on strong opioids, this program may help you feel more in control and satisfied with your pain care.
This study tests a program that uses a smartwatch and a smartphone app to help people with advanced cancer manage symptoms like pain or fatigue. It aims to improve comfort and quality of life.
