Mobile Health Intervention to Improve Adherence to Oral Anticancer Therapy
Sponsor: University of California, Irvine
Summary
New oral anticancer treatments have improved survival across cancer types but introduced challenges in medication adherence and symptom management. The SMART pilot trial will test a new mobile health intervention that facilitates remote adherence and symptom monitoring, patient-provider communication outside of clinic visits regarding the use of oral anticancer treatments, and support for financial and social needs, as well as health literacy support, for 30 English- and Spanish-speaking patients. This study will increase understanding of barriers and facilitators to the use of the proposed mHealth intervention.

SMART Intervention using TAPPT® for Adherence, Symptom, Financial, and Social Needs Monitoring
The SMART intervention uses TAPPT® smart labels and a web-based app for real-time monitoring of oral anticancer therapy adherence. It includes personalized text reminders, biweekly surveys for medication adherence and symptom burden, missed and extra dose management, symptom alerts to providers, monthly financial and health-related social needs screening with tailored resources, and educational texts for low health literacy. TAPPT® smart labels work with Android/iOS smartphones. All participants receive usual oncology care.
