Interventions
Patients will fill in a web-based application PRO-CTCAE with integrated preparation questionnaire every week. If their weekly reported symptoms exceed a predefined threshold of severity, this results in a notification on the staff application interface and a nurse will contact a patient for verification of symptoms. Nurse will review patient recent treatment and PRO reports and advise patient according to the local practice for symptom management and reinforce reporting. Nurse will consult with or refers to (if possible) treating physician if patient will require medical intervention and/or physician assistance.
