'Cancer Patients Better Life Experience'

Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare health-related quality of life, specifically fatigue, in melanoma patients treated with immunotherapy who use or do not use a patient-centered mobile coaching and monitoring system (CAPABLE). It is expected that by using the CAPABLE eHealth tool, patients' fatigue worsens less significantly (10 points) in the first 3 months follow-up than observed in usual care.

DEVICE

Cancer Patients Better Life Experience (CAPABLE)

The CAPABLE system serves three main goals for the patient: symptom monitoring, information needs fulfilment and interventions to improve mental- and physical wellbeing. These are available to the patient as a smartphone application that is connected to a smartwatch to monitor activity, blood pressure, sleep and heart rate. Patients are able to report symptoms experienced from the treatment and are eligible to do interventions such as mindfulness or yoga. Patients will receive the CAPABLE application and smartwatch for a minimum 3 to a maximum of 6 months after start treatment.
