NCT ID NCT02530177

Summary

This study aims to understand how often and why women with non-metastatic breast cancer experience hair loss, skin aging, and nail changes during chemotherapy or hormone therapy. Researchers are following over 500 women to identify who is most at risk and how these side effects impact their quality of life. The goal is to gather information that could lead to better prevention, treatment, and patient counseling for these common but distressing side effects.
