Full Description

The investigators' objective is to assess patient decision-making, anxiety and patient satisfaction with recommendations made by an oncologist before and after the BCI test results are known. In addition, a chart review will be performed annually for five years to assess disease status and medications. Specifically, if extended endocrine therapy was recommended the chart review will record if participants are taking the medication and, if not, why the treatment was discontinued.
