简要总结
The primary objective is to test whether a text-based e-triage can safely minimize the time associated with routine cancer care by identifying patients who can proceed directly to their immunotherapy infusion without a preceding in-person office assessment.

研究组 & 干预措施
Treatment Arm
For patients in the intervention arm, symptoms and laboratory results will be assessed using the text-based e-triage 96 hours prior to their intended infusion date. The e-triage will consist of a standardized questionnaire and algorithm to evaluate symptoms and laboratory values. Patients with acceptable labs and minimal or no symptoms can opt to proceed directly to their immunotherapy infusion without an in-person office assessment.
干预措施: Text triage (Other)
Usual Care
Patients in the usual care arm will receive standard of care symptom monitoring including an in-person office assessment prior to their scheduled immunotherapy infusion.
