Why it matters
LifeChamps delivers a novel, context-aware and large-scale analytics framework capable of delivering multi-dimensional Quality of Life (QOL) support to all the different cancer life champions during and after their treatments. LifeChamps is providing support to middle aged and older (pre-frail and frail) cancer patients, as well as their caregivers and healthcare professionals, with an integrated Big Data-driven solution capable to improve their QOL via a timely and more accurate clinical decision support at the point of care. Its Artificial Intelligence (AI) and analytics engine, running both at the cloud and at the mobile edge, can determine accurately which factors affect the oncological patients’ QOL the most, during and after their treatment. Furthermore, complemented by a health recommender system LifeChamps offers personalized healthcare services (such as symptom monitoring, treatment and rehabilitation) to these patients and their caregivers. Finally, a multi-factorial frailty model will allow to stratify sub-clinical frail groups of geriatric cancer patients towards more personalized treatment.
What ECPC does
In this project, the European Cancer Patient Coalition (ECPC) will lead liaison and interaction with relevant stakeholders from industry, SMEs, patients, healthcare professionals and policy makers at EU and country level. ECPC will also participate in the identification/establishment of the health needs, priority outcomes, and care requirements of end-users/stakeholders at the post-cancer treatment period, as well as their views, preferences and expectations from the developed LifeChamps components.
