About the study
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an artificial intelligence phone application called ASSIST can help patients receiving cancer treatment.
The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:
Is ASSIST feasible for patients (meaning can it be used by patients)? Is ASSIST acceptable to patients (meaning do patients like it)?
Researchers will compare the ASSIST phone application to see how it compares to usual clinical care.
Participants on the ASSIST arm will use the ASSIST phone application for 12 weeks, and participants in both groups will complete surveys.
