Summary

This study tests a nurse-delivered patient navigation program for women with HER2+ metastatic breast cancer who are taking a specific combination of drugs. The program provides education, symptom management tips, and coping strategies over about 12 weeks. Researchers want to see if the program is feasible and acceptable to patients. Only 26 women will take part, and the main goal is to see if they find the program helpful and easy to use.
