Summary

Self-management interventions can help patients and their families care for themselves along the cancer care continuum. This scenario has witnessed the rapid and ongoing growth in mobile technologies, including mobile health (mHealth). LuCApp (Lung Cancer App) is an application developed by researchers and lung cancer clinicians to gather symptom data in real time and to share it with healthcare professionals. This is a 24-week, two-arm, non-blinded multicenter feasibility parallel randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the usability and effectiveness of LuCApp vs standard care to improve self-management of symptoms and health related quality of life in lung cancer patients.
