Brief summary

This is a multi-centre prospective cohort study to collect data related to management of Hormone Receptor positive, HER2 negative advanced breast cancer in a real-world patient population. Who is it for? You may be elgible for this study if you are aged 18 years or older, of any gender and you have been diagnosed with metastatic, or inoperable histologically confirmed HR+, HER2- breast cancer (either metastatic at diagnosis or relapsed), after 1st January 2020. Study details All enrolled participants will contribute health data to the development of the registry. Participants will not have to attend additional appointments or undergo additional blood tests or scans outside of their routine treatment. Information collected from participants will include duration of therapy, the rationale for any change in treatment and uptake of targeted therapies or immunotherapy. This study will also collect data on any treatment received in the (neo) adjuvant setting, including chemotherapy and endocrine therapy as this does impact subsequent treatment decisions and treatment order in the metastatic setting. It is hoped this research will contribute important information about all patients with HR+, HER2- advanced breast cancer and help to inform future treatment decision-making for clinicians.

Interventions

To prospectively describe real-world clinicopathologic presentation and treatment selection in patients with newly or recently diagnosed HR+ve, HER2-ve Advanced Breast Cancer in Australia of approximately 300 patients from 10-15 sites. Recruitment is expected to take place over a 3 year period. The entire study duration is 4 years, with an estimated median patient follow up of 2.5 years. There is no active participation of patients required as data will be collected from medical records. Informa

There is no active participation of patients required as data will be collected from medical records. Information collected would include details about the presentation and course of disease, the type and sequence of therapies and the outcomes for each patient. The data would be collected retrospectively from January 2020 onward and prospectively for new patients and data.
