A plain-language summary of the goals, design and what participants do
This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of a treatment called atezolizumab, which is a solution for injection, on various types of cancer. The study involves two groups of participants. The first group includes individuals with advanced forms of lung cancer, specifically metastatic non-small cell lung carcinoma and extensive-stage small-cell lung carcinoma, as well as those with advanced or unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, a type of liver cancer. The second group consists of individuals who have had surgery for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of the study is to explore how digital health solutions can impact health outcomes and the use of healthcare resources for people receiving systemic treatment, which is a type of treatment that affects the entire body. In the first group, the study aims to show how a digital patient monitoring system can help manage symptoms for those receiving atezolizumab. In the second group, the study will look at how feasible it is to combine this digital monitoring with atezolizumab treatment administered at home.
Participants in the study will receive either atezolizumab or a placebo. The study will monitor various aspects of health, including symptom management and the number of hospital visits. The trial will also assess the safety and side effects of atezolizumab when used in combination with digital health tools. The study is expected to continue until 2025, with participants being observed over a period of time to gather comprehensive data on the treatment's effectiveness and impact on quality of life.
The trial runs in 5 steps – from screening to follow-up. Each step says what happens and what the team monitors.

is a medication used in this clinical trial. It is an immunotherapy drug that helps the body's immune system fight cancer. Atezolizumab works by blocking a protein that prevents the immune system from attacking cancer cells. In this study, it is being evaluated for its effectiveness when administered subcutaneously, which means it is given as an injection under the skin. The trial aims to see how well this method works when patients receive the treatment at home.
is a digital health solution used in the trial. This module is designed to monitor patients' symptoms and how they interfere with daily life. It helps healthcare providers track the patient's condition remotely and make informed decisions about their treatment. The study is investigating whether this digital tool can improve health outcomes for patients receiving atezolizumab.
This is a type of lung cancer that has spread from the lungs to other parts of the body. It begins in the cells lining the lungs and can progress to affect other organs. As the disease advances, it can cause symptoms such as persistent cough, chest pain, and difficulty breathing. The spread of cancer cells can lead to complications in various body systems.
This aggressive form of lung cancer is characterized by its rapid growth and spread beyond the lungs. It often affects the lymph nodes and other organs early in its course. Symptoms may include coughing, chest pain, and shortness of breath. The disease can progress quickly, leading to significant health challenges.
This is a primary liver cancer that cannot be removed surgically due to its advanced stage or location. It originates in the liver cells and can grow to affect liver function and spread to other parts of the body. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, weight loss, and jaundice. The progression of the disease can lead to liver failure and other complications.
This refers to early-stage lung cancer that has been surgically removed but was initially classified as stage IIB to IIIB. It involves cancer that has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes but not to distant parts of the body. After resection, monitoring is crucial to detect any recurrence. The disease's progression is typically slower compared to more advanced stages.
