Study Summary
This trial will test a tailored program for 40 young adults with cancer to see if it meets criteria and is easy/acceptable to use.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adolescents and young adults aged 15-24 with cancer who are prescribed oral chemotherapy or prophylactic medication. They must be fluent in English without significant cognitive deficits, as judged by their medical team, and willing to use an electronic monitoring device. Those already showing high adherence (95% or more) during a preliminary period won't qualify.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a tailored program against the standard uniform care to improve medication adherence in young cancer patients. It's designed to see if the new approach is feasible, easy to use, acceptable, and meets certain criteria regarding enrollment, retention, fidelity of implementation, and data completion.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on improving adherence rather than testing new medications, side effects will relate primarily to the existing medications being taken by participants rather than from the interventions themselves.
