Acerca de la investigación
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of psychosocial therapy on improving treatment response among breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. Participants will be randomized to receive standard medical treatment alone or combined with structured psychosocial therapy. Outcomes include treatment response, psychological well-being, and quality of life.
1. Do psychosocial interventions affect the response to breast cancer treatment?
2. How do societal attitudes toward psychological and social care influence the willingness of breast cancer patients in Palestine to seek psychosocial interventions?

Note Regarding the Modification of the Eligibility Criteria - Age Range
Please note that one of the study eligibility criteria has been revised, specifically the age range, which has been expanded from 20-65 years for several reasons.
First, the youth age group in Palestine is defined as individuals aged 18-65 years. Second, the disease affects patients across a broad range of ages rather than being limited to a specific age group. Finally, given the political and socioeconomic challenges facing our study, which may limit the availability and recruitment of patients across different age groups, particularly younger individuals, expanding the age range was considered necessary to facilitate patient recruitment and ensure a more representative study population.
Therefore, broadening the age eligibility criteria was deemed a practical and methodologically appropriate adjustment to address these challenges while improving the feasibility of the study.

Medidas principales
Breast cancer-specific quality of life assessed by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Breast (FACT-B)
Plazo: Baseline and 6 weeks
Breast cancer-specific quality of life will be assessed using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast (FACT-B) questionnaire. The FACT-B is a 37-item instrument assessing physical, social/family, emotional, functional well-being, and additional breast cancer concerns. Total scores range from 0 to 148, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.
Medidas secundarias
Anxiety level assessed by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale - Anxiety subscale (HADS-A)
Plazo: Baseline and 6 weeks
Psychological distress will be assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). The HADS is a 14-item questionnaire consisting of two subscales: anxiety and depression. Each subscale score ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating greater psychological distress and worse outcomes.
Health-related quality of life assessed by the 36-item short form health survey (SF-36)
Plazo: Baseline and 6 weeks
Health-related quality of life will be assessed using the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36). The SF-36 is a 36-item questionnaire measuring eight domains of physical and mental health. Domain scores are transformed to a scale ranging from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better health-related quality of life.
