Development of a Cabozantinib (Cabometyx) Symptom Management Application for Use in Patients With Renal Cancer

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Treated With Cabozantinib
Interventions
Device: Usability of an electronic symptom management application
Registration Number
NCT03867045
Lead Sponsor
Duke University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop an on-line electronic symptom management application that can ultimately be used to improve clinical outcomes in patients with mRCC treated with cabozantinib.

Detailed Description

This is a single-site, prospective technology-based, clinical trial. Nine patients with mRCC initiating cabozantinib therapy who meet subject eligibility criteria will be enrolled in this study. Subjects will be given an iPOD touch with the symptom monitoring application installed, physical activity and blood pressure monitors. Each patient will be kept on study for the first 12 weeks of therapy with cabozantinib. Subjects on treatment for less than 12 weeks will not be replaced.The symptoms and other data (physical activity, blood pressure) recorded electronically by the patient will be compared to symptoms recorded in the medical record at interval clinic visits.
