Testing the Addition of Activity Monitoring With a Wearable Electronic Device to Improve Patient Care During Treatment for Lung Cancer
This trial will examine if the monitoring of daily step counts during a course of concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer will enable clinicians to deliver improved supportive care and reduce the rate of adverse events during the course of radiation treatment.

How this study is categorized
These labels come from structured fields and exact terms in the public record.
Who may be able to participate
The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.
- Pathologically (histologically or cytologically) proven diagnosis of NSCLC
- Planned initiation (within the 30 days after study registration) of fractionated (≥15 treatments) thoracic radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy. Expected treatment scenarios include:
- Definitive treatment of stage III disease (most common)
- Definitive treatment for locoregional recurrence of early stage disease
- Definitive treatment of unresectable stage II disease
- Preoperative treatment of stage III disease
- Postoperative treatment after incomplete resection (uncommon)
- Radical treatment for a patient with advanced/metastatic disease with the goal of achieving long-term thoracic disease control (e.g., oligometastatic disease where metastases are addressed with resection or stereotactic radiotherapy)
- ECOG Performance Status 0-3 within 30 days prior to registration
- Age ≥ 18
- Ambulates independently or with a cane (use of a walker not permitted)
- Patients who already use wearable devices and/or smartphones that monitor physical activity are eligible for this trial. Patients must agree to wear the device provided by the study.
- The patient or a legally authorized representative must provide study-specific informed consent prior to study entry.
- Patients with a history of another cancer that is expected to affect the toxicity profile of thoracic chemoradiotherapy for NSCLC
- Patients receiving concurrent treatment for another cancer that is expected to affect the toxicity profile of thoracic chemoradiotherapy
- Patients receiving thoracic radiotherapy without concurrent chemotherapy are ineligible. Patients receiving concurrent chemotherapy and another form of systemic therapy (e.g., immunotherapy) are eligible. Patients receiving radiotherapy with concurrent immunotherapy or targeted therapy but without chemotherapy are ineligible
Important: This is the sponsor’s public criteria, not a determination of eligibility. The study team must review your individual situation.
