Brief Summary

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

This randomized pilot clinical trial studies survivorship care planning in improving the quality of life in breast cancer survivors. Survivorship care planning may reduce stress and improve the well-being and quality of life of cancer survivors.

Detailed Description

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

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Test the effectiveness of the navigation intervention and survivorship care plan (SCP)-breast cancer survivors (BCS) template booklet on accessing and adhering to SCP-BCS guidelines compared to the control group receiving usual care and the SCP-BCS template booklet.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Develop a clinically and psychosocially responsive SCP-breast cancer survivors (SCP-BCS) template in English and English-Spanish adopted from American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)-SCP.

II. Assess the acceptability, utility and format preference (electronic vs paper) of the SCP-BCS template.

OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM I: Participants receive SCP-BCS template booklet and receive counseling sessions with a patient navigator for 40 minutes twice weekly for 4 sessions.

ARM II: Participants receive SCP-BCS template booklet and receive standard follow-up care.

After completion so study treatment, participants are followed up at 6 and 12 months.
