Bladder cancer is in Europe the 4th most incident cancer among men and the 7th most frequent cause of cancer death. Many patients will receive chemo- or immunotherapy in either the neoadjuvant setting or for recurrent or metastatic disease. The registration and handling of side effect is crucial in bladder cancer treatment, since the missing identification and insufficient treatment of such can lead to incomplete treatment and thereby decreased effect. It is therefore of utmost importance to develop new tools which can increase identification of the side effects and improve treatment to secure the best life expectancies for these patients. This study will in a randomized trial using PRO-CTCAE™ questions, EORTC QLQ-C30 + QLQ-BLM30 in one arm versus standard procedure regarding side effect registration and handling in the other arm, test the effect of electronic reporting of side-effects and quality of life with a specifically developed alert-algorithm. Both study arms will include chemotherapy and immunotherapy patients as standard therapy.
