  • "Fifteen English-speaking breast cancer survivors who meet the inclusion criteria will use a combination of smartphone-based ecological momentary assessments, a medication event monitoring system (Wisepill), and a wearable sensor (Fitbit)."
  • "Participants will complete online surveys at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months to assess their experiences and adherence."
  • "Fifteen breast cancer survivors will be asked to participate in this longitudinal study for six months."
  • "Participants will be directed to complete an online screening survey via Qualtrics or to contact the study staff via email or phone."
  • "The investigators will then provide sensors to participants (via mail) and in a subsequent baseline data collection session (via Zoom), assist participants with completing baseline surveys via Qualtrics, in learning how to use the sensors, and in downloading and using smartphone applications."
  • "Participants will be asked to use two sensors: 1) a medication event monitoring system device (MEMS; Wisepill); and 2) a wrist-worn wearable sensor (Fitbit) daily for the next 6 months (see below)."
Compensation
Not stated
  • Study-related exams and procedures are typically provided at no cost. This is how many trials work in general — confirm the details for this study with the study team.
  • Participants are monitored closely by the research team throughout the study.
  • Some participants may receive access to an investigational treatment, which is still being studied.
  • Your participation helps researchers learn whether this approach could help future patients.

About this study

The goal of this study is to learn about the impact of an integrated medication monitoring system in breast cancer survivors aged 21-70 who are prescribed endocrine therapy. The main question it aims to address is: Does the integrated medication monitoring system improve medication adherence among breast cancer survivors when used over a six-month period? Fifteen English-speaking breast cancer survivors who meet the inclusion criteria will use a combination of smartphone-based ecological momentary assessments, a medication event monitoring system (Wisepill), and a wearable sensor (Fitbit). After 2 months, participants will be provided personalized content to facilitate medication adherence through an app (Digital Trails) and through WisePill. Participants will complete online surveys at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months to assess their experiences and adherence.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
