Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effect of a mobile application system using the Patient Reported Outcomes version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE) to improve patients' participation in symptom management during cancer treatment. Our hypothesis is that patients who use a mobile application using the PRO-CTCAE will more likely to recognize symptoms due to cancer treatment and report them better to their clinicians than patients who do not use the mobile application.

The intervention will be the use of a mobile application for recording symptoms during cancer treatments. Patients in the intervention group will have the mobile application (e-PRO) installed on their smart phones on the first day of cancer treatment (chemotherapy or radiation therapy) and patients will be asked to use the application for 8 weeks. Every week, the application will ask patients to report symptoms they experienced during past 7 days using the pre-specified PRO-CTCAE questions for different types of cancer. Patients also can memo and save photos related symptoms using the application and patients can monitor the progression of the symptoms over time.
