Description
Yolanda Eraso and colleagues describe the 2026 ENABLE study, which built a symptom diary for breast cancer survivors. Many survivors take hormone therapy drugs for five to ten years after their first treatment ends. Some grow worried when pharmacies switch them between brands of the same drug, and no tool existed to help with those concerns.
The team used a person-based design method that mixes theory, past evidence, and patient input at every stage. Planning drew on an online forum with 277 users plus interviews with patients and pharmacists. Workshops and further interviews then shaped the diary itself, with a patient advisory group consulted throughout. Patients and pharmacists both saw community pharmacies as the right setting for brand discussions. Both groups backed a diary that helps women track symptoms and judge whether a brand change caused them.
