What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Patient acceptability of the app using questionnaire provided when patients attend for their 3rd cycle and quantified using a 5-point Likert scale
Time Frame: 42 days
The app will be used at cycles 1 and 2 of capecitabine (each cycle is 21 days), and acceptability of the app will be measured using a questionnaire when patients attend hospital for their 3rd cycle of capecitabine.
42 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Health care provider's acceptability of the app using questionnaires
Time Frame: 48 months
At the end of the study, health care professionals (HCPs) involved in the study will be interviewed using semi-structured interview.
48 months
Patients' interactivity with the app will be measured using mobile app and web server functions
Time Frame: 42 days
The app will be used at cycles 1 and 2 of capecitabine (each cycle is 21 days). During this period the number of patient interactions with the mobile app and health care professionals interactions with the web server functions will be recorded.
