The purpose of this study is to test whether a new cell phone application called Be Zesty, helps women manage the stress and symptoms that might happen when they get chemotherapy for breast cancer. Participants will be assigned to one of two groups:
- use the Be Zesty app
- usual care (do not use the Be Zesty app)
for 6 months and complete three health assessments. The study is a randomized clinical trial.
The study is funded by a grant to University of California San Francisco (UCSF) from the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation (award number IIR13265366) and the UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center.
