Brief Summary:
Abemaciclib (Verzenio) is a commonly used treatment for hormone receptor-positive breast cancer, but it can cause gastrointestinal side effects such as diarrhea, which may affect quality of life and treatment tolerance. The gut microbiome, which is the collection of bacteria living in the digestive tract, may play a role in these symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to examine how the gut microbiome changes during the early phase of abemaciclib treatment and how these changes relate to gastrointestinal symptoms experienced by patients. Participants will provide stool samples at multiple time points using mailed collection kits and will complete questionnaires about gastrointestinal symptoms while receiving standard-of-care abemaciclib therapy. All study procedures will be conducted remotely.
Information gained from this study may help inform future supportive care strategies for breast cancer patients receiving abemaciclib.
