Summary

Oncological home-hospitalization might be a patient-centred, cost-effective approach to deal wiht the current challenges in cancer healthcare.

The primary aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate patient-reported quality of life of patients receiving (partial) oncological home-hospitalization and to compare this outcome with patients receiving standard ambulatory hospital care.
