Patients’ Guidance With Onco-Coaching and CANKADO on Systemic Chemotherapy for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

This is a prospective, single arm, non-interventional project to evaluate the benefit/influence of individualized patient education and guidance with a web-based e-Health platform called CANKADO on patient reported outcomes (PRO) for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. The focus will be on patient reported outcomes (PRO), distress, Quality of Life (QoL), Global Health Status, complaints and therapy relevant decisions. All patients will be medically treated according to the standards. The experimental arm will include 40 patients. Those patients will receive one initial coaching before start of therapy. Further appointments for coaching will be scheduled depending on individual patient’s need. During treatment period the patient is encouraged of joining therapy actively documenting his state of health and occurring health complaints via CANKADO to give the physician a better overview on the process of patient’s health behaviour and preparing him for the next doctor-patient consultation.
