Currently, there is minimal research addressing the experiences and perspectives of those with MBC, an advanced stage breast cancer. Many individuals with MBC struggle to access and utilize supportive care services. Using a literature review, a series of focus groups, and a world café, we aim to develop a collaborative research agenda improve the quality of life of people with MBC in British Columbia.
