Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine if patient education can affect patient reported bone pain in breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy and pegfilgrastim.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this study, the effect of patient education on reported bone pain in breast cancer patients receiving adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy and pegfilgrastim will be investigated.

Each patient will receive adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy with pegfilgrastim prophylaxis, beginning in the first cycle and continuing throughout the study period. The study period for this study is the first 4 cycles of chemotherapy. participants can be planning to receive regimens with \> 4 cycles, but data will only be collected for the first 4 cycles. The choice of chemotherapy regimen (agent, dose, and schedule) is at the discretion of the treating physician. Commercially available pegfilgrastim will be administered according to US Prescribing Information and is considered background therapy.

General Education DVD

Participants received chemotherapy and pegfilgrastim administered as a single subcutaneous injection dose of 6 mg 24 to 72 hours after chemotherapy. Participants were required to watch a general chemotherapy side effects education DVD on 2 separate visits to the clinic prior to the first administration of pegfilgrastim in cycle 1.

Exclusion Criteria

* Planning to receive weekly chemotherapy
* Chronic use of oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or oral antihistamines with the following exception:

\- Chronic oral aspirin use for cardiovascular-related indications
* Ongoing chronic pain, or other painful conditions requiring treatment (including immediate post-operative treatment of surgical or procedural-associated pain) as determined by the investigator
* Chronic oral steroid use. Premedication related to the administration of taxanes, and use of anti-emetics is allowed, per usual clinical practice.

* Currently enrolled in, or less than 30 days since ending, another interventional clinical trial which includes a blinded treatment or blinded treatment arm (whether or not the subject is randomized to the blinded arm)
* Currently enrolled in, or less than 30 days since ending, another interventional clinical trial which includes the use of any agent not currently considered to be standard therapy for the adjuvant or neoadjuvant treatment of stage I-III breast cancer based on National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology for Breast Cancer
* Currently enrolled in, or less than 30 days since ending, any pain intervention study
