All records were screened, extracted, and quality assessed by two authors. Main outcomes were feasibility and acceptability of using technology to help deliver interventions, with secondary outcomes of potential efficacy in any measure of quality of life, wellbeing, or function.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Result<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Twenty-nine eligible studies were included. Digital interventions were mostly feasible and acceptable, with high retention rates and participant satisfaction. Many participants expressed willingness to recommend the interventions to others or continue use. Engagement rates were generally high, although fewer studies addressed diet and nutrition than exercise and physical activity interventions.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Digital supportive care interventions may be feasible, well-accepted, and tolerated by individuals with incurable cancer. These platforms could effectively improve this population\u2019s support for physical activity and symptom management. However, the heterogeneity in study designs highlights the exploratory nature of these interventions. To advance the field, future research should focus on adequately powered studies, improved generalisability, and standardised tools for measuring outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Trial registration<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>This trial has been prospectively registered in PROSPERO (ID: CRD42021295936).<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00520-025-09759-1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,18]],"date-time":"2025-07-18T07:50:24Z","timestamp":1752825024000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Using digital technology to support wellbeing and independence among people living with incurable cancers: a systematic review"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Jordan","family":"Curry","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cristina M.","family":"Caperchione","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sarah","family":"Greenley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elizabeth","family":"Dennis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cynthia C.","family":"Forbes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,18]]},"reference":[{"issue":"9","key":"9759_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"905","DOI":"10.1200\/JCO.19.00470","volume":"38","author":"LA Henson","year":"2020","unstructured":"Henson LA et al (2020) Palliative care and the management of common distressing symptoms in advanced cancer: pain, breathlessness, nausea and vomiting, and fatigue.
