NCT03584659

Brief Summary

Electronic reporting of patient-reported outcomes with alert algorithm will be tested in a randomized trial in bladder cancer patients undergoing chemo- or immunotherapy. The clinical endpoints will be:

  • Quality of life
  • Completion of treatment
  • Hospital admission
  • Dose reductions
  • Survival

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Rate of completion of treatment

    Registration of whether patients complete the planned treatment and if not if the cessation was preventable.

    Within the first 6 months of treatment

  • Hospital admission

    Registration of whether patients by closer contact to clinic between visits can decrease the rate of hospital admissions for preventable causes during treatment.

    Within the first 6 months of treatment

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Quality of life questionnaires EORTC QLQ-C30 (general quality of life questionnaire) and EORTC QLQ-BLM30(quality of life questionnaire specifically for muscle-invasive bladder cancer patients)

    Within the first 6 months of treatment

  • Overall survival measured from time of study initiation to death

    Analysis will be made up to 2 years after study completion

  • Dose-reductions

    Within the first 6 months of treatment

Study Arms (2)

Standard of care

NO INTERVENTION

This arm will continue standard procedure regarding side effect registration and handling

PRO

EXPERIMENTAL

This arm will be assigned to intervention by weekly electronic reporting of side effects and quality of life. A specifically developed alert-algorithm will in real-time guide both patient and alert clinical staff if symptoms are increasing or quality of life is deteriorating.

Device: Electronic patient-reported outcomes

Interventions

Weekly reporting of patient-reported outcomes for closer contact between patient and clinic between treatment cycles.

Also known as: Alert-algorithm, Real-time guidance of patients when symptom reporting, Alerts to clinical staff
