Brief Summary
The goal of this multicentric randomized controlled clinical trial is to test the role of mobile medical application (APP) on adjuvant therapy compliance and quality of life (QoL) in patients with early breast cancer. Participants assigned to the Ruijin Breast Cancer APP (RJBC-APP) group can receive treatment reminders, matters needing attention as well as science knowledge and they can communicate with the medical staff during adjuvant treatments while follow-up can only be conducted in outpatient clinic for those in the Control group.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Rate of compliance with adjuvant therapy
Compliance is defined as completing the adjuvant therapy recommended by multidisciplinary team in terms of the type, dosage, date and course, and non-compliance is considered in the presence of any of the following cases: 1) the patient refuses to accept the recommended treatments, 2) the actual treatments are different from those recommended, 3) the patient dose not complete the full course of treatments, 4) the patient starts the treatment 7 days or more later than the established date, 5) the patient does not follow the recommended dose and intensity.
12 months after adjuvant therapy
Overall Survival (OS)
OS is calculated from the date of surgery to the date of death.
60 months after adjuvant therapy
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Rate of compliance with adjuvant therapy
3、6 and 24 months after adjuvant therapy
Quality of Life (QoL) Scale
3、6、12 and 24 months after adjuvant therapy
Cancer-related symptoms scores
3、6、12 and 24 months after adjuvant therapy
Disease-free Survival (DFS)
60 months after adjuvant therapy
Study Arms (2)
The RJBC-APP group
EXPERIMENTALParticipants randomized to the RJBC-APP group should register on the RJBC-APP, through which they can receive treatment reminders, matters needing attention as well as science knowledge and communicate with the medical staff.
The Control group
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants randomized to the Control group have no access to the RJBC-APP and post-surgical follow-up can only be conducted in outpatient clinic.
Interventions
The RJBC-APP consists of the following features: 1. Login, logout, setting, and modification of personal information. 2. Full-course management included registering for information on the surgical treatment, viewing the results of the multidisciplinary team (MDT) discussion, generating the treatment process according to the MDT discussion, receiving the reminder of the treatment, confirming the completion of the treatment, filling in the follow-up information, and consulting a specialist nurse. 3. Questionnaire and feedback.
The routine post-surgical follow-up is conducted in the outpatient clinic.
