Abstract

Background: This study evaluates the implementation of the GETSET (Guiding Endocrine Therapy Success through Empowerment and Teamwork) pilot, a motivational interviewing (MI) intervention aimed at improving endocrine therapy (ET) adherence among patients with breast cancer.

Methods: Using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), qualitative interviews were conducted with site staff (N = 2), patients (N = 4), and counselors (N = 2).

Results: The thematic analysis identified facilitators such as high-quality materials, ease of scheduling sessions, and effective communication among staff. However, barriers included lack of personalization and systemic issues like understaffing.

Conclusions: The study underscores the need to adapt implementation of behavioral interventions in a healthcare setting to improve ET adherence. As this was a process evaluation of a pilot study, future work should evaluate the barriers and facilitators to a larger clinical trial to identify if the same strategies should be refined.

期刊介绍： Cancer Causes & Control is an international refereed journal that both reports and stimulates new avenues of investigation into the causes, control, and subsequent prevention of cancer. By drawing together related information published currently in a diverse range of biological and medical journals, it has a multidisciplinary and multinational approach. The scope of the journal includes: variation in cancer distribution within and between populations; factors associated with cancer risk; preventive and therapeutic interventions on a population scale; economic, demographic, and health-policy implications of cancer; and related methodological issues. The emphasis is on speed of publication. The journal will normally publish within 30 to 60 days of acceptance of manuscripts. Cancer Causes & Control publishes Original Articles, Reviews, Commentaries, Opinions, Short Communications and Letters to the Editor which will have direct relevance to researchers and practitioners working in epidemiology, medical statistics, cancer biology, health education, medical economics and related fields. The journal also contains significant information for government agencies concerned with cancer research, control and policy.
