This phase III trial compares an additional support program (text message reminders and/or
telephone-based counseling) with usual care in making sure breast cancer patients take their
endocrine therapy medication as prescribed (medication adherence). Medication adherence is
how well patients take the medication as prescribed by their doctors, and good medical
adherence is when patients take medications correctly. Poor medication adherence has been
shown to be a serious barrier to effective treatment for hormone receptor positive breast
cancer patients. Adding text message reminders and/or telephone-based counseling to usual
care may increase the number of days that patients take their endocrine therapy medication as
prescribed.
