NCT03456973

Brief Summary

The investigators propose to build and test a supportive care software platform called Nurse AMIE (Addressing Metastatic Individuals Everyday) to be provided to metastatic breast cancer patients on Android Tablets. This program will be tested in 50 metastatic breast cancer patients within the Penn State Cancer Institute's 28 county catchment area. The company with whom the investigator will partner to develop this application is already working with multiple investigators at the institution (Webster Group).
