Impact of eHealth-support on Quality of Life in Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients Treated With Palbociclib and Endocrine Therapy
PRECYCLE: Multicenter, Randomized Phase IV Intergroup Trial to Evaluate the Impact of eHealth-based Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) Assessment on Quality of Life in Patients With Hormone Receptor Positive, HER2 Negative Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer Treated With Palbociclib and an Aromatase Inhibitor- or Palbociclib and Fulvestrant

Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
In this study the investigators assess the impact of the eHealth-supported therapy management system CANKADO on Quality of Life in patients with HR+, HER2-locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer treated with the cyclin dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) Inhibitor Palbociclib in combination with an aromatase inhibitor or fulvestrant. Furthermore this approach will be combined with biomarker screening to identify predictive markers for and to learn more about adherence, symptoms, response, and resistance.

- CANKADO inform
- description
- CANKADO inform stands for a CANKADO-based eHealth service with a personal login. For the patient , on-site surveys without feedback functions and a dosing tracker to document daily drug intake will be available. CANKADO inform will be used for the initial ePRO and further on-site ePROs. Patients can login from home, but they will only get text information about their disease and treatment. Further features will be unavailable.
