A systematic review analyzed 16 studies involving 144,496 cancer patients, focusing on gastrointestinal, lung, and head and neck cancers. The study found that interventions triggered by patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were diverse, including referrals, medication changes, and self-management advice. Notably, in three studies, these interventions significantly improved cancer-related care and patient outcomes, emphasizing the potential of PRO-triggered interventions to enhance the quality of life for individuals undergoing resource-intensive cancer treatments.
