Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This clinical trial tests the feasibility of using the MyCap mobile application (app) for tracking time burden from treatment for patients with pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer is best treated with many care teams, such as medical oncology and surgery, requiring patients to dedicate significant time coordinating appointments among different doctors. This time commitment is referred to as time toxicity, defined as the time spent undergoing cancer-related medical care, such as emergency visits, ambulatory care, lab and infusion visits, hospitalizations, and the commuting and waiting times associated with each. At present, time toxicity is still understudied within the medical literature, with no gold standard established for the method of measurement. The MyCap mobile app may be a feasible way to track the time burden from treatment for patients with pancreatic cancer.
