Feasibility of an Enhanced Symptom Monitoring and Expedited Subspecialty Care Referral Intervention to Improve Side Effect Management for Patients With Melanoma Receiving an Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Melanoma

In brief

This clinical trial tests the feasibility of patient reported outcomes monitoring with early, rapid immunotherapy toxicity subspecialty care to improve side effect management for patients with melanoma receiving an immune checkpoint inhibitor. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have improved outcomes for patients with advanced melanoma, but their use is frequently complicated by immune related adverse events (irAEs). IrAEs can affect any organ system, range in severity from mild to life threatening, and often require a pause or stopping of immunotherapy treatment. Early identification and management of irAEs may reduce progression to severe toxicity. Electronic patient self reporting of symptoms with ways to support early involvement of non oncology subspecialists may be a feasible way to improve side effect management for patients with melanoma receiving an immune checkpoint inhibitor.
