Cancer patient who used Re-Mission
Re Mission – HopeLab
The issue - Adherence is an issue in any treatment, especially in self-administered oral chemotherapyThe solution - HopeLab (a non-profit organisation) created
the game Re-Mission with the aim of inducing positive behaviours in young cancer patients
- Game play includes destroying cancer cells and
managing adverse events by destroying them with the relevant treatment
Re Mission – HopeLab
The Outcome • Randomised trials have shown improvement in overall treatment outcomes in a difficult to treat population of patients
• Patients were both more likely to adhere to their treatment, engage in better self-care and gained more knowledge of their treatment and condition
