Intervention name:
Cancer Patients Better Life Experience (CAPABLE)
Description:
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.
Arm group label:
CAPABLE cohort
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.
Detailed description:
This is a prospectively enrolling, explorative cohort study in melanoma patients,
eligible for or on treatment with ICI therapy. The explorative cohort receives the
CAPABLE smartphone application and a multi-sensorial smartwatch. Patients will be asked
to use the system for minimum of three to maximum of six months after enrolment.
Questionnaires on health-related quality of life (such as fatigue) and user experience
will be administered to the patients on baseline/before start treatment (T0), three
months (T1) and six months (T2). Results of this interventional study will be compared
with a historical cohort consisting of melanoma patients (P20MEL; NL75996.031.20) with
the same inclusion criteria as this study population, but receiving standard care (e.g.
without the CAPABLE app).
