摘要

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.
