Summary
This trial is testing a screening program to catch early signs of diabetes, high cholesterol, and other heart disease risk factors in breast cancer survivors. The goal is to get patients help and treatment before these conditions worsen.
Who is the study for?
This clinical trial is for early-stage breast cancer survivors who have finished their local or systemic therapy at least 3 months ago. Participants must be receiving care through specific Johns Hopkins Medical Institute locations and be able to read and speak English. Those with metastatic breast cancer cannot join.
What is being tested?
The study aims to implement a screening program for conditions like prediabetes, diabetes, dyslipidemia, hyperlipidemia, and increased cardiovascular disease risk in breast cancer survivors. It includes various assessments such as HbA1c levels, lipid panels, BMI evaluations, and cardiovascular risk predictions.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on screening rather than medication or invasive procedures, there are no direct side effects from the interventions being studied. However, participants may experience stress or anxiety related to learning about their potential health risks.
