Oral Drug Administration clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

NCT ID: NCT02921724 Active, not recruiting - Cancer Clinical Trials

Participatory Research for Fine-tuning of a 2.0 System to Optimise Home Management of Oral Cancer Therapies.

Start date: January 27, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a prospective testing-validation, interventional, non-pharmacological study on a new app for oral anticancer therapy management. A total of 80 patients will be considered: 20 evaluable patients in the training step; 60 patients in the validation step. In the training step will be considered evaluable the patients with: at least 6 weeks of treatment; visit at 6 weeks after the start of treatment performed and questionnaires self-administered. Patients will be visited every 6 weeks. In the training step, patients will remain under observation for a minimum of 6 weeks, until change of therapy (due to progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity, death, discontinuation) or for a maximum of 12 weeks. Patients enrolled in the validation step will remain under observation until change of therapy (due to progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity, death, discontinuation) or for a maximum of 24 weeks. The objective of this study is to assess the capability of a newly developed interactive health care application to support patients and health professionals in the shared management of oral anticancer therapies, improving adherence, preventing complications at home, toxicities, improper treatment reductions or interruptions, emergency accesses and to assess the system usability and acceptability by patients and health professionals, integration in the hospital workflow, monitoring over time patient perceived levels of quality of care, quality of life, social support, anxiety, and self-care capability.
