AB  - BACKGROUND: The mortality rate from breast cancer has been declining for many 
      years, and the population size of working-age survivors is steadily increasing. 
      However, the recurrent side effects of cancer and its treatment can result in 
      multiple disabilities and disruptions to day-to-day life, including work 
      disruptions. Despite the existing knowledge of best practices regarding return to 
      work (RTW) for breast cancer survivors, only a few interdisciplinary 
      interventions have been developed to address the individualized needs and 
      multiple challenges of breast cancer survivors, health care professionals, and 
      employer and insurer representatives. Thus, it seems appropriate to develop RTW 
      interventions collaboratively by using a co-design approach with these specific 
      stakeholders. OBJECTIVE: This paper presents a protocol for developing and 
      testing an innovative, interdisciplinary pilot intervention based on a co-design 
      approach to better support RTW and job retention after breast cancer treatment. 
      METHODS: First, a participatory research approach will be used to develop the 
      intervention in a co-design workshop with 12 to 20 participants, including people 
      affected by cancer, employer and insurer representatives, and health care 
      professionals. Next, a pilot intervention will be tested in a primary care 
      setting with 6 to 8 women affected by breast cancer. The acceptability and 
      feasibility of the pilot intervention will be pretested through semistructured 
      interviews with participants, health care professionals, and involved patient 
      partners. The transcribed data will undergo an iterative content analysis. 
      RESULTS: The first phase of the project-the co-design workshop-was completed in 
      June 2021. The pilot test of the intervention will begin in spring 2022. The 
      results from the test will be available in late 2022. CONCLUSIONS: The project 
      will offer novel data regarding the use of the co-design approach for the 
      development of innovative, co-designed interventions. In addition, it will be 
      possible to document the acceptability and feasibility of the pilot intervention 
      with a primary care team. Depending on the results obtained, the intervention 
      could be implemented on a larger scale. INTERNATIONAL REGISTERED REPORT
