• •Patients who are able to complete questionnaires in English or Spanish must participate in patient-reported outcome (PRO) assessments

• •Except for breast cancer (and previous history of breast cancer), no other prior malignancy is allowed with the following exceptions:
• •* Adequately treated basal (or squamous cell) skin cancer
• •* Any cancer from which the patient has been disease free for five years

• •Patients must not have received prior systemic therapy for metastatic breast cancer, except for their current line of therapy.
• •Patients must have decision making capacity and be able to provide informed consent
• •Patients must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and must sign and give written informed consent in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines; use of legally-authorized representative is not permissible for this study.

• •STEP 2 RANDOMIZATION
• •Patients must be tested for the breast cancer specific STMs that were tested prior to STEP 1 Registration between 56 and 140 days after initiation of first-line systemic therapy for metastatic disease:
• •* CEA (must be tested)
• •* CA 15-3 or CA 27.29 (whichever was tested prior to Step 1)
• •Testing all three STMs is encouraged but only two are required. Patients must plan to have the same two STMs tested for the duration that the patient is on protocol-specified disease monitoring.
• •At least one of the STMs that was previously elevated must have decreased from the assessment at step 1 by \>= 10% at this time.
• •Patients must not have known progression since registration to step 1
• •Patients must be registered to step 2 randomization between 56 days and 140 days after the initiation of first-line systemic therapy for metastatic disease; This window is inclusive; patients may be registered to Step 2 on day 56 or Day 140. Patients must have been eligible for Step 1 in order to be eligible for Step 2 Randomization
• •Baseline questionnaires must be completed within 28 days prior to step 2 randomization; (Note: Those patients who cannot complete the PRO questionnaires in English or Spanish can be registered to step 2 without contributing to PRO research)
