Pilot Study for Young Women's Intervention

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Breast Cancer

In brief

This is a pilot study, which will inform a larger study to evaluate the Young Women's Intervention (YWI). The goal of this research is to develop, implement and test a refined exportable and sustainable education and support intervention for young women with breast cancer and their oncology providers. This pilot study will test the feasibility of the Young Women's Intervention (YWI) as well as a Physical Activity Intervention (PAI) at four unique sites. In addition, it will include a qualitative assessment, through focus groups and key informant interviews, of concerns facing young women with breast cancer. The investigators aim to use the findings from this pilot study to inform a larger future Young Women's Intervention (YWI) study where the YWI intervention will be compared to a Physical Activity Intervention (PAI).
