Abstract

PURPOSE: Patient-centered outcomes (PCOs) are pivotal in cancer treatment, as they directly reflect patients' quality of life. Although multiple studies suggest that factors affecting breast cancer-related morbidity and survival are influenced by treatment side effects and adherence to long-term treatment, such data are generally only available on a smaller scale or from a single center. The primary challenge with collecting these data is that the outcomes are captured as free text in clinical narratives written by clinicians.
