About
The goal of this study is to understand and improve the breast surgical decision-making process for young women newly diagnosed with breast cancer. As part of this study, the investigators will evaluate the impact and use a web-based tool called CONSYDER that is designed to provide useful information to young breast cancer patients. It is also meant to improve communication between young women and their surgeons with the purpose of helping patients make appropriate surgical decisions.
Participants will complete surveys approximately within 1 week of the surgical consult and approximately 6 months after surgery. Patients who receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy will also be surveyed after the completion of neoadjuvant treatment but prior to surgery. Some patients will be invited for an interview after their surgery as part of the evaluation. A subset of patients/surgeons will also have their surgical consultation audio-recorded.

Exploratory Objectives:
OUTLINE: This is a multi-site cluster randomized trial using a stepped wedge design. Approximately 800 women will be recruited at 4 study sites (Weill Cornell Medicine, Yale Cancer Center, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Duke Cancer Institute), including network affiliate sites, over an approximate 30-month period. All sites will have a 6-month "run-in" period where patients will not be sent CONSYDER. The 6-month blocks may be extended if recruitment targets are not met. Sites will be randomized to begin delivery of CONSYDER to all newly diagnosed women, age ≤44, with Stage 0-III breast cancer as part of routine clinical care; young women will have access to the website whether or not they consent to research study participation.
