Purpose Of Review: Monitoring the side effects of treatments in cancer patients is a key challenge in clinical practice, especially with the development of oral therapies.The impact on patients is multifaceted: morbidity or even life-threatening risks in the case of severe side effects; deterioration in quality of life and functional abilities; lower adherence to treatments; reduced dose intensity, which can affect the efficacy of therapies.
Recent Findings: The availability of digital tools for remote patient monitoring is transforming our ability to track these patients effectively.
