It is a skin-safe, FDA complaint and non-invasive device that can read and monitor skin temperature. Having continuous temperature monitoring using the IDION iTempShield may provide early detection of a fever for patients with febrile neutropenia. Febrile neutropenic fever is common in patients receiving chemotherapy and can often indicate infection. The main potential benefit potenially experienced from participating in this study would be the early detection of fever. There is a potential benefit that infection will be detected earlier in subjects wearing the IDION iTempShield. ## Detailed Description The purpose of the study is to evaluate the remote patient temperature monitoring service of the Idion Shield system in patients undergoing outpatient stem cell transplantation or CAR-T therapy who are at risk for developing infections and/or cytokine release syndrome. Febrile neutropenia remains a significant complication of treatment and often it is the first and sometimes the only sign or symptom of infection in this vulnerable patient population. CAR-T patients are at risk for not only febrile neutropenia but also cytokine release syndrome (CRS), a systemic inflammatory response that can lead to hypoxia and shock. Fever is typically the first sign and hallmark of this potentially life-threatening condition. Routine measurement of body temperature is an important aspect of monitoring for signs of infection in patients receiving chemotherapy and for CRS in CAR-T patients.The current of standard of care for patients is to take their oral temperature when they feel ill and directing them to call their physician when their oral temperature reading is above 100.4. Having continuous temperature monitoring using the IDION iTempShield may provide early detection and intervention while reducing hospitalization rates, improving outcomes, and preventing death. With an increase in technological advancements and telemedicine, remote monitoring has shown to reduce health costs while providing closer follow-up for patients. The study will also analyze the potential reimbursement through Medicare to show the cost-benefit for remote monitoring utilizing the IDION iTempShield. ## Eligibility - **Minimum age:** 18 Years - **Sex:** ALL - **Healthy Volunteers:** No ``` Inclusion Criteria: 1.

Subjects with no available ``` ## Arms - **Intervention group** (EXPERIMENTAL) — Subjects being treated for a cancer diagnosis with a plan for outpatient transplant or CAR-T therapy - **Control Group** (NO_INTERVENTION) — Retrospective data from the control group comprised of 105 patients directly preceding the intervention group who are underwent stem cell transplant or CAR-T therapy. Such control group information will be obtained via a research data request. Only de-identified data will be obtained for these subjects. ## Interventions - **IDION iTempShield** (DEVICE) — Subject is being treated for a cancer diagnosis with a plan for outpatient transplant or CAR-T therapy ## Primary Outcomes - **To evaluate the IDION Shield remote subject temperature monitoring service.** _(time frame: 6 Months)_ — The ability of the Idion System to transmit alerts if there is a temperature excursion sustained for at least 15 minutes above the alert protocol. There is a full data set time correlated with temp data in, battery voltage status and alerts that have been sent by Idion. The data will be mined and compared with the number of alerts and the timing of those alerts in the database.There will be times when the mobile device is offline due to mobile device battery exhaustion or distance traveled away from the device (left mobile at home) and these alerts will be missed. - **To evaluate the IDION Shield remote subject temperature monitoring service.** _(time frame: 6 Months)_ — The accuracy of the Idion iTempShield as validated by subject taking their temperature manually with the thermometer, to be captured in the subject app. This data is transmitted to the clinician application, and this will demonstrate subject use and shield interoperability. - **To evaluate the IDION Shield remote subject temperature monitoring service.** _(time frame: 6 Months)_ — The ability of the Idion iTempShield to be paired with the subject's phone. This data will be subjective data.This endpoint will be calculated as the number of successful pairings (i.e., where pairing was confirmed by Idion System) divided by the total number of pairing attempts. The point estimate of the successful pairings along with a 90% confidence interval will be presented. - **To evaluate the IDION Shield remote subject temperature monitoring service.** _(time frame: 6 Months)_ — Test alert protocol with clinicians pre-pilot to simulate an alert event. Testing will entail inputting a manual temperature of over 100.4 into the patient app. If the clinician receives a phone call, text, or email alerting them that there has been a temperature event, this test will be deemed successful. If this is not functioning properly the software will be adjusted and a new test will be performed. If this cannot be done, then the Pilot will be paused until corrected. - **To evaluate the IDION Shield remote subject temperature monitoring service.** _(time frame: 6 Months)_ — The incidence of Idion iTempShield-alerted temperature events in the overnight hours (9pm-6am and 12am-6am). Analyze temperature trends and clinical course at 3 hours pre and post alert and 6 hours pre and post alert. This is not the normal course of treatment for these subjects. This data set is an attempt to uncover temperature trends that may change the course of treatment for cancer patients. ## Secondary Outcomes - **To evaluate the clinical course of subjects with elevated temperatures** _(time frame: 6 Months)_ - **To evaluate the clinical course of subjects with elevated temperatures** _(time frame: 6 Months)_ - **To assess subject and clinician satisfaction and compliance with the remote subject temperature monitoring service.** _(time frame: 6 Months)_ - **To assess subject and clinician satisfaction and compliance with the remote subject temperature monitoring service.** _(time frame: 30 days)_ ## Locations (1) - Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, South Carolina, United States ## Recent Field Changes (last 30 days) - `status.overallStatus` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `status.primaryCompletionDate` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `status.completionDate` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `status.lastUpdatePostDate` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `design.phases` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `design.enrollmentCount` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `eligibility.criteria` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `eligibility.minAge` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `eligibility.sex` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `outcomes.primary` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `outcomes.secondary` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `armsInterventions.arms` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `armsInterventions.interventions` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `sponsor.lead` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `results.hasResults` — added _(2026-05-12)_ - `locations.medical university of south carolina|charleston|south carolina|united states` — added _(2026-05-12)_ --- *Canonical: https://parkinsonspathways.com/agent/trials/NCT05576220.md* *Source data (authoritative): https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05576220* *This page is a raw mirror with no AI summary, no editorial enrichment, and no Parkinson's-specific filtering.*
