Brief Summary:
The main purpose of our study is to assess the effect of a lifestyle intervention combining weight control, diet and physical activity on the risk of recurrences among breast cancer patients with non-metastatic tumours in terms of 5-year cumulative incidence of recurences.

Detailed Description:
BACKGROUND/MAIN OBJECTIVE: The main purpose of our study is to assess the effect of a lifestyle intervention combining weight control, diet and physical activity on the risk of recurrences among breast cancer patients with non-metastatic tumours. As secondary objectives we aim to assess whether the proposed intervention is able to improve the overall survival or the disease-free survival, as well as quality of life of breast cancer patients. METHODOLOGY: This multicentric randomized controlled trial aims to include 2108 women (1054 per arm), aged up to 75 years, diagnosed with a non-metastatic breast cancer (stage I, II, IIIA) in the participating centres, whose standard treatment was completed within the last 3 months. Participants will be assigned to either an intervention or a control group, and followed for five years. Patients assigned to the control arm will continue with the usual care, including standard guidelines for weight control applied in the centre. Patients in the intervention group will be involved in a lifestyle program with two components. The dietary part will aim to achieve a calorie reduction while maintaining nutritional quality; the physical activity part will include supervised sessions of moderate intensity. Data will be analyzed on an intention to treat basis using time-toevent analysis. HYPOTHESES: We expect a significant reduction in the 5-year cumulative incidence of recurrences (primary outcome) in the intervention group. Furthermore, as secondary outcomes, we expect a significant increase in overall survival and an improvement of quality of life of patients included in the intervention arm.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Intervention
Lifestyle intervention combining weight control, diet and physical activity
Behavioral: Diet
The dietary component, aimed to reduce calorie intake according to individual requirements, will be structured in 1-hour weekly sessions led by trained nutritionists. Sessions will concentrate on teaching participants about food groups, the food pyramid and Mediterranean diet, how to chose, prepare and cook hypo-caloric meals.

Behavioral: Physical activity
The physical activity component will include two sessions per week led by trained physical activity monitors including aerobic exercise of high/moderate intensity, and instruction about the at-home exercise activities (3 more sessions).

Sham Comparator: Minimal intervention
Minimal diet intervention and minimal physical activity intervention
Behavioral: Minimal diet intervention

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Time to local and distant recurrence [ Time Frame: 5 years from recruitment day ]
    Time between recruitment date and local and distant recurrence date or end of the 5-year follow-up which ever occurs first


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall survival [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Time between recruitment date and death date or end of 5-year follow-up which ever occurs first

  2. Disease free survival [ Time Frame: 5 years ]
    Time between recruitment date and recurrence (local or distant) or death or end of 5-year follow-up which ever occurs first

  3. Quality of life [ Time Frame: Baseline, one year and three years ]
    Quality of life assessments using the SF36, the FACIT (fatigue questionnaire) and the HADS (Anxiety and depression)


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Changes in biomarkers [ Time Frame: Baseline and one year ]

    Biomarkers related to:

    • sex hormone profile,
    • dietary intake,
    • insulin resistance,
    • inflammation process
    • and any biomarker possibly related to the progression of the disease.
