Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Usual CareExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients receive all follow-up care at DFCI only, which is currently the Standard Care. Majority of routine visits in first 180 days will be at DFCI.
Group II: Shared CareExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
For the first 90 days, patients alternate between local oncologist and DFCI for weekly visits. From 90 to 180 days, patients alternate between local and DFCI every 2-3 weeks. Shared Care include the following Formal Care Coordination Plan Patient Engagement and Education Local Oncologist Engagement and Education Patient/Local Oncologist/Transplant Oncologist Web Portal
