1. Why is the MO42720 clinical trial needed?
Digital monitoring of a person’s disease- or treatment-related symptoms and health during treatment may improve treatment results, reduce the number of serious side effects and help doctors and patients to manage symptoms more effectively. A Digital Patient Monitoring system is a web- and app-based electronic system that allows people with cancer to provide information on how they are coping with disease and treatment to their clinics’ care team in a structured and regular way. This clinical trial aims to assess how well Digital Patient Monitoring works to improve health outcomes in people receiving anti-cancer treatment and reduce the use of healthcare resources.
2. How does the MO42720 clinical trial work?
This clinical trial is recruiting people who are being given anti-cancer treatment. The people who take part in the trial are known as ‘participants’. The trial will test the patient monitoring system in groups of participants (known as ‘cohorts’) with different types of cancers or who are receiving different types of treatments. People can take part in:
- Cohort A if they are being treated with atezolizumab for lung cancer (non-small cell lung carcinoma [NSCLC] that has spread in the body or extensive-stage small-cell lung carcinoma) or liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) that has grown or spread in the body or cannot be removed with surgery.
- Cohort B if they are being treated with atezolizumab for lung cancer (NSCLC) that contains a protein called PD-L1, and they have undergone surgery to remove the tumour and completed chemotherapy.
Throughout the trial, half of the participants in Cohort A and all participants in Cohort B will be asked to complete weekly questionnaires on disease- or treatment-related symptoms they have using the Digital Patient Monitoring system, via an app installed on their internet-capable device (computer or mobile phone) or via a web browser. Participants who are not selected to use the patient monitoring app will be able to report symptoms according to normal practice in their local area. All participants in Cohorts A and B will be given access to a second app, to report on their health-related quality of life and impact of symptoms on daily life every 7 days. Participants in Cohort A will be given anti-cancer treatment according to normal practices in the area where they live. Participants in Cohort B will be given an experimental anti-cancer treatment that is not yet approved by health authorities, starting with treatment at the hospital for the first three cycles, and then continuing with treatment at home (by a trained nurse). The clinical trial doctor will see them regularly to check how the participant responds to the treatment and any side effects they may have. The total time in the clinical trial will be up to about 1 and a half years depending on the type of cancer and treatment being given. Participants will be seen at a follow-up visit about 1 month after their last dose and contacted by telephone after 3 months to check on their health. Participants can stop trial treatment and/or stop using the Digital Patient Monitoring system and leave the clinical trial at any time.
3. What are the main endpoints of the MO42720 clinical trial?
The main clinical trial endpoints (the main results measured in the trial) depend on the cohort:
- Cohort A: How participants’ symptoms interfere with daily life at 3 months after the start of the trial
- Cohort B: How many participants choose to receive treatment at home when combined with the use of the patient monitoring app, 4 months after the start of the trial
Other clinical trial endpoints include the:
- Number of emergency or unscheduled visits to hospital due to symptoms/side effects
- Number and seriousness of side effects
- Number of people who pause, change the dose of or stop anti-cancer treatment due to side effects
- Change in quality of life throughout the trial
4. Who can take part in this clinical trial?
People can take part in this trial if they are at least 18 years old, meet the criteria to join a cohort in this trial and have an email address, access to an internet-capable device (smartphone, tablet or PC) and access to an internet connection. People may not be able to take part in this trial if they have a physical or mental condition that prevents them from using the apps provided or have/had certain cancers or certain medical conditions such as long-term infections. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding or are planning to become pregnant during or shortly after the trial will not be able to take part.
5. What treatment will participants be given in this clinical trial?
Everyone will be given anti-cancer treatment and support from their care team with or without the use of the patient monitoring app. When the patient monitoring app is provided to half of a cohort (such as for Cohort A), they will have an equal chance of being placed in either group.
6. Are there any risks or benefits in taking part in this clinical trial?
The safety or effectiveness of the experimental treatment or use may not be fully known at the time of the trial. Most trials involve some risks to the participant. However, it may not be greater than the risks related to routine medical care or the natural progression of the health condition. People who would like to participate will be told about any risks and benefits of taking part in the clinical trial, as well as any additional procedures, tests or assessments they will be asked to undergo. All of these will be described in an informed consent document (a document that provides people with the information they need to decide to volunteer for the clinical trial).
Risks associated with the clinical trial drugs and patient monitoring app
Participants may have side effects (an unwanted effect of a drug or medical treatment) from the drugs used in this clinical trial. Side effects can be mild to severe, even life-threatening, and vary from person to person. Participants will be closely monitored during the clinical trial; safety assessments will be performed regularly. Participants will be told about the known side effects of anti-cancer treatment, and possible side effects based on human and laboratory studies or knowledge of similar drugs. Anti-cancer treatment will be given as an infusion into a vein (intravenous infusion) in Cohort A, or an injection under the skin (subcutaneous injection) in Cohort B. Participants will be told about any known side effects of anti-cancer treatment, any known risks of the patient monitoring app and where relevant, potential risks based on human and laboratory studies or knowledge of similar devices.
Potential benefits associated with the clinical trial
Participants' health may or may not improve from participation in the clinical trial. Still, the information collected may help other people with similar medical conditions in the future.
