ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is focused on improving the care and communication for patients with breast cancer. The project aims to understand how breast cancer care is currently being provided by looking at the experiences and needs of both patients and doctors. By gathering information from patient organizations and medical professionals, the trial seeks to identify areas where care can be improved. The goal is to create a better system for communication and support, ensuring that the needs of patients are at the forefront of breast cancer care.

To participate in this trial, individuals must be 18 years or older and have a confirmed diagnosis of breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Doctors who treat breast cancer patients are also invited to join. Participants can expect to share their experiences and insights about communication and care, which will help shape future improvements in treatment and support for breast cancer patients. This is an opportunity for both patients and physicians to have their voices heard and contribute to better care.
