Part 2 – Health-related Quality of Life Survey
Due to the previous Huddle’s popularity among advocates, Yan Zhan is once again seeking and inviting metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patient advocates to provide feedback on a survey to better understand how socioeconomic, clinical factors, and physical and psychological symptoms impact health-related quality of life for those diagnosed with MBC. This Huddle is open to all MBC patients, so there are no specific subtypes required at this time.
