However, the patient’s perspective is vital to fully understanding dose toxicity and selecting an optimal dose. This viewpoint paper reviews the rationale for and practical approach to collecting patient-reported outcome data in early phase oncology drug development and the rationale for electronic collection. %R 10.2196/64611 %U https://cancer.jmir.org/2025/1/e64611 %U https://doi.org/10.2196/64611
