Treatment-related adverse events as a source of financial hardship in young adults with breast cancer: a qualitative study
Treatment-related adverse events can contribute to financial toxicity after breast cancer through direct and indirect costs. Among young adults, indirect costs can include those that result from vocational disruption. Strategies to reduce the risk of financial toxicity should be included in care pathways to address complications of treatment itself.
