An interventional study of OnKO-Tips&Tricks digital phone application in Cancer, sponsored by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France. Active, not recruiting at 10 sites in France. Open to participants aged 15 Years to 25 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-01-02.

Approximately 2,200 cancers per year in France are diagnosed within the adolescents and young adults population (15-25 years old, AYA). The cancer plans and the INCA recommend support during and after cancer treatment, taking into account both medical and psycho-social specificities related to age (support care, school learning/training and professional integration, fertility preservation, therapeutic education, addictology, sexology...). In this context, AJA teams have been developed in which the Nurse Coordinators (IDEC) play a fundamental role. These Nurse Coordinators are available to young patients, their families and the professionals who accompany follow them in their therapeutic journey. Their main missions are to assess the specific needs of these young people and their loved ones, to inform, orient and participate in the coordination of their care by providing psychosocial and paramedical solutions to these young patients. The circular of 30/05/2016 on the coordinated regional organization of care for AJAs supports the development of connected health tools for AJAs. This population is adept to new technologies, social networks allowing them to continue to be informed and remain integrated to the outside world while helping them prepare for life after cancer.
In this context, our team initiated the development of a digital application compatible for any cellphone OnKO-Tips\&Tricks meeting these criteria of necessity with the company CAPCOD. We would want to move on to a validation stage by carrying out a national multicenter efficacy study in AJA mobile units by comparing two groups of patients: users/non-users of this digital tool on a main criterion of quality of life after using it for 6 months. As it should promote autonomy and integration into the care pathway as well as active participation in therapeutic education programs (TPE), these different items will be evaluated as secondary endpoints of our study

Evaluate the efficacy of the OnKO-Tips&Tricks digital phone application on the psychosocial dimension of patients' quality of life
Assessed using a psychosocial health score obtained by the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory™ Version 4.0 Generic Core Scales questionnaire. The PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scale contains 23 items that measures physical (eight items), emotional (five items), social (five items), and school (five items) functions. The Scale comprises parallel patient self-report and parent proxy-report formats. The items are reverse-scored and trans- formed to a 0-100 scale according to the instructions, and higher scores indicate a better HRQOL.
Time frame: 6 months of inclusion
