Details and patient eligibility

About

To compare the efficacy of the addition of a therapeutic education program combined with nursing phone follow-up, compared to conventional management alone, on the management of adverse events (AEs) related to adjuvant hormone therapy during the first year of treatment in patients with non-metastatic breast cancer.

Full description

The main objective of the ETAPH project is to offer breast cancer patients multidisciplinary care that will limit the impact of adverse effects related to hormone therapy treatment and improve their quality of life. The achievement of this objective is based on therapeutic education and nursing follow-up throughout the first year of treatment, which, thanks to active listening and coordination of the various players, will enable global and personalized patient care.
