Patient-centered engagement and symptom/toxicity monitoring in the new era of tumor next-generation sequencing and immunotherapy: the OncoTool and OncoPRO platforms.
This paper describes the development of the OncoTool and OncoPRO platforms to help patients with late-stage cancer (stages III-IV) and their providers in providing patient-centered education and remote and routine monitoring of symptoms and toxicities after tumor next-generation sequencing testing and treatment. The OncoTool is a web-based educational resource tailored for people with advanced cancer. It aims to provide patients with easy-to-understand treatment options and associated toxicities as well as evidence-based strategies for managing symptoms and improving stress management. It is fully integrated with OncoPRO which provides feedback on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) to clinicians. The data from the platform can be integrated with the patient’s electronic health record (HER) and can provide an alert message. These systems are currently being tested with 4 trials – 1 for OncoTool and the other 3 for OncoPRO.

Standards for UNiversal reporting of patient Decision Aid Evaluation studies: the development of SUNDAE Checklist.
This study sought to develop and reach consensus on reporting guidelines to improve the quality of publications evaluating patient decision aids (PDAs). The study concluded that the SUNDAE (Standards for UNiversal reporting of patient Decision Aid Evaluations) Checklist will help ensure that reports of PDA evaluation studies are understandable, transparent and of high quality.
