Summary

The goal of this clinical trial investigation with device is to determinate the efficacy of the remote monitoring in cancer patients with a software called Caaring® a través del cumplimento terapéutico y de dosis. The main question it aims to answer is if the development of a self-management platform (Caaring®) empowers cancer patients throughout their illness, reducing the number of in-person and telephone visits assisted by specialized medical and nursing staff. For this, researchers will compare the assessments between the two groups. This is a randomized study with two arms. Online telemonitoring group: The follow-up of these patients will be carried out prospectively remotely through the Caaring® platform. And Prospective Control group: The data of these patients are collected prospectively for their routine medical visits for 12 weeks after their inclusion. Caaring group patients must have sufficient technological skills to use a smartphone.

Interventions

DEVICEsoftware Caaring (remote monitoring app)

Caaring is an electronic data collection notebook that allows patients to confidentially fill out data/ questionnaires on their mobile phone and report them through an application that will be installed on the patient's mobile phone. Besides, This group (G\_CAARING) will receive educational and prevention recommendations relative to cancer.
