Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease, Quality of Life
Conditions
Brief summary
The goal of this interventional study is to learn if the Horizons mobile application is feasible for survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant who have chronic graft-versus-host disease. Participants will be asked to complete surveys and use the Horizons mobile application.
Interventions
Participants will receive access to the Horizons app intervention. The intervention pairs patient-centered information about chronic graft-versus-host disease with self-management strategies. Within each module, patients will engage in didactics and exercises that are relevant to the participant's chronic graft-versus-host disease concerns. The app contains 6 digital modules delivered via tablet over approximately 6 weeks. Each module should take up to approximately 20 minutes and are self-guided.
