Summary

Chemotherapy induces side effects varying in severity, impacting patients' quality of life and necessitating unplanned hospital care. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) could aid in early detection and management of side effects. However, existing PRO monitoring lacks triage capabilities, leading to clinician involvement and suboptimal symptom management. The investigators propose eChemoCoach, an electronic questionnaire integrated into the electronic health portal, offering real-time symptom assessment and personalized advice based on CTCAE criteria. Our study aims to assess the impact of eChemoCoach on non-hematological CTCAE ≥ 3 graded side effects in early breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. This is a randomized controlled trial involving 746 patients that will evaluate the eChemoCoach's efficacy compared to standard monitoring. Phase one will validate questionnaires and assess usability, while phase two focuses on the primary outcome. Te investigators anticipate reduced severe side effects, thereby enhancing patients' quality of life, reducing stress, and minimizing hospital visits.

eChemoCoach

the eChemoCoach is an electronic questionnaire which is accessible for patients via the secured electronic health portal (EHP) of the EHR, which is CE-certified. By utilizing the eChemoCoach, patients (for this project we focus on breast cancer patients) have the ability to complete a questionnaire on a daily basis, when experiencing side effects. The eChemoCoach has the potential to evaluate the severity of adverse effects based on the CTCAE criteria and triage them, mimicking the decision-making process of a HCP through computer adaptive testing (CAT). Upon completing the questionnaire, the eChemoCoach translates the responses for each specific side effect into corresponding CTCAE grades. The tool then promptly offers patients personalized advice, tailored to their individual condition.
