Study Summary

This trial is testing web-based tools to help patients with early stage breast cancer make decisions about treatment. The goal is to learn how best to implement these tools in clinical practice.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English or Spanish-speaking women aged 35-74 with atypical hyperplasia (AH) or lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS), who have internet access and can give informed consent. It's not for those pregnant, lactating, with a history of invasive breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in situ, prior/current use of certain breast cancer drugs, hormone therapy, bilateral mastectomies/breast implants, or premenopausal thromboembolism.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The MiCHOICE study tests web-based decision support tools to help patients and healthcare providers make informed choices about breast cancer chemoprevention. The goal is to understand how these tools affect decision-making processes and their integration into clinical practice.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the interventions include educational materials and interviews rather than medical treatments, there are no direct physical side effects associated with this trial. However, participants may experience psychological impacts from discussing sensitive health information.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Group II (educational materials, decision support, interview)Experimental Treatment4 Interventions
Patients receive standard educational materials about breast cancer risk and chemoprevention in RealRisks via the patient portal or website. Patients receive patient-centered decision support within the patient portal via an action plan summarizing their breast cancer risk profile, their risks and benefits of SERMs and AIs, and personal preferences for chemoprevention. Health care providers receive decision support and action plans based on their patients' interactions with RealRisks via the BNAV provider-centered support tool within the EHR. A sample of patients participate in an audio-recorded interview via telephone or video conference over 45-60 minutes at 12 months after registration. A sample of health care providers participate in 3 audio-recorded interviews via telephone or video conference over 45-60 minutes each at baseline, within 12-36 months after study activation, and within 12 months after study closure to accrual.
