NCT05827289

Brief 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.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in fatigue between baseline and 3 and 6 months, as measured by fatigue symptom scale of The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)

    Fatigue is measured on a score from 0-100, the lower the score the less fatigue a patient has

    Baseline, month 3, month 6

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Change in health-related quality of life and QALY's between baseline and 3 and 6 months, as measured by The EuroQoL-5D (EQ-5D-5L).

    Baseline, month 3, month 6

  • Change in health-related quality of life and physical symptoms between baseline and 3 and 6 months, as measured by the EORTC QLQ-C30

    Baseline, month 3, month 6

  • Change in melanoma specific quality of life between baseline and 3 and 6 months, as measured by the FACT-M

    Baseline, month 3, month 6

  • Change in patient reported immunotherapy-related toxicity between baseline and 3 and 6 months, as measured by a self-developed questionnaire using EORTC item bank items

    Baseline, month 3, month 6

  • Change in psychological distress between baseline and 6 months, as measured by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).

    Baseline, month 6

  • +6 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

CAPABLE cohort

EXPERIMENTAL

Group that receives the CAPABLE application during treatment

Device: Cancer Patients Better Life Experience (CAPABLE)

Interventions

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.
