About

The purpose of this study is to find out if continued monitoring of side effects from Selinexor and prescribed medication to prevent side effects helps improve symptoms, quality of life, and ability to continue the treatment longer.

The secondary objectives are:

• To describe characteristics of patients treated with selinexor.
• To describe adherence with the telehealth intervention.
• To define the type and frequency of adverse events that patients experience while taking selinexor.
• To describe the duration of selinexor therapy and evaluate adherence and dose intensity of selinexor in VA cancer patients receiving a telehealth symptom management intervention.
• To describe concomitant medication usage in patients treated with selinexor.
• To assess quality of life in patients treated with selinexor in the VA.
