Helping advanced cancer patients connect to palliative care via electronic reporting
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial uses electronic surveys to identify symptoms and unmet needs in people with advanced cancer, then connects them to palliative care services. It aims to improve quality of life by making sure patients get the extra support they need.

This trial tests a special care plan designed for people with advanced cancer who are frail. The goal is to see if this personalized approach helps improve quality of life and support.
This trial studies a real-time symptom monitoring system (ePROs) that collects your symptoms during care transitions, like when you leave the hospital. The goal is to catch warning signs early so you can avoid adverse events after discharge.
This trial tests whether an electronic app and data charts (shown on a tablet) can help patients with cancer better track and share their symptoms and health experiences. You may be able to participate if you are receiving chemotherapy and/or radiation for certain cancers and can use the tablet system.
This study tests a palliative care program designed to improve quality of life for people with metastatic breast cancer. It may help you better manage symptoms and coordinate care with your oncology team.
This study tests a program that combines early palliative care with remote monitoring through electronic assessments and telehealth. It aims to improve quality of life and symptom management for people recently diagnosed with metastatic cancer.
This study studies how a patient “reporting” program (called PRO) works for people with advanced pancreatic or bile-tract cancer. It may help teams understand symptoms and needs earlier to improve care and support during treatment.
