Participants must be able to understand and speak English without cognitive impairments that limit their ability to complete study tasks.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial aims to develop and test digital care plans complemented by text message reminders. These tools are designed for young patients with Cancer Predisposition Syndromes to assess how acceptable, feasible, and effective they are in managing health care needs.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves digital care plans rather than medication or invasive procedures, traditional physical side effects aren't expected. However, participants may experience stress or anxiety related to following a new care regimen.
