This study's aim is to evaluate the feasibility of introducing a women's malignancy survivorship clinic incorporating symptom management through ePRO collection (complex intervention) into routine follow up care in patients with early-stage Hormone Receptor(HR)-positive breast and gynaecologic cancer post primary curative therapy.
Study Design: Complex interventional study. Specific Aims: To evaluate the feasibility of introducing a women's malignancy survivorship clinic in Ireland incorporating symptom management through electronic Patient Reported Outcomes (ePROs) collection (complex intervention) into routine follow-up care in patients with early-stage HR-positive breast and gynecologic cancer post-primary therapy.
Sampling Method: Randomized Control Design (Parallel Arms). Sample Size: 200.
