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.
Who can take part
- Be older than 18 years
- 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
- Not have significant memory/thinking problems (like Alzheimer’s or dementia)

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 trial tests whether a digital multimedia program can help cancer patients better manage pain, stick to their pain medications, and feel more satisfied with their pain control. If you have cancer pain and are taking strong opioids, this study might help you learn new ways to handle your pain.
This trial compares traditional classroom teaching with online learning methods for nursing students learning about cancer pain care. It aims to find which approach leads to better learning outcomes and lower costs for the institution.
This study tests whether wearing a smartwatch and using an app can help doctors better manage pain and other symptoms in advanced cancer patients. The goal is to catch problems early and improve comfort through better symptom tracking.
