A Chicago study found that cancer patients using a home online symptom reporting tool showed median survival of 31 months versus 26 months for standard care. The tool prompted rapid nurse responses, more timely treatment adjustments, fewer ER visits, and eight versus six months of chemotherapy on average. Findings were presented at the ASCO meeting and published in JAMA.
