Assess the quality of life in patients with hormone receptor positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor-type 2 negative metastatic breast cancer treated in first line (patients with new metastasis or recurrence during adjuvant endocrine therapy): comparison between public and private institutions. The hypothesis to be evaluated is that patients treated in private institutions have a better quality of life when compared to patients treated in public institutions.
The main objective of the study is to assess the quality of life using the EORTC-QLQ-C30 (EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire) and the EORTC-QLQ-BR23 (EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire - Breast Cancer) of a patient with metastatic breast cancer hormone receptor positive human epidermal growth factor receptor-type 2 negative receiving treatment in the first-line scenario, comparing public and private institutions.
