Nils Nicolay: The first data from our randomized APCOT trial
Nils Nicolay, Chair of the Department of Radiation Oncology at the University of Leipzig Medical Center, shared on LinkedIn:
“Hot off the press – the first data from our randomized APCOT trial:
- Digital patient care seems feasible during radiotherapy (as shown for Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) patients in the trial)
- Symptom reporting during radiotherapy is significantly improved by app-based monitoring
- The addition of digital patient care does improve patient satisfaction and some domains of quality of life
Very promising results from one of the first randomized trials of app-based digital patient care in the field of radiation oncology! And more to come…A big thanks to all contributors to the success of this trial. I am looking forward to further collaborations!
