What this trial studies
DianaWeb is a community-based participatory research initiative aimed at Italian women diagnosed with breast cancer. The program evaluates the effectiveness of lifestyle and nutrition interventions to improve patient prognosis through an interactive website that monitors lifestyle choices and collects clinical data. Participants receive evidence-based information and practical advice to encourage healthy lifestyle changes based on established cancer prevention guidelines. The study aims to recruit 50,000 breast cancer survivors to assess the impact of these interventions on recurrence and quality of life.
