简要总结
The primary objectives of this study are to determine the effect of the dietary intervention (Cocinar para su salud! Program) vs. control (standard written nutrition education materials for cancer survivors) in Hispanic breast cancer survivors with early stage breast cancer on 1) daily servings of fruit and vegetable intake from baseline to 6 months; and 2) percent energy from fat and fat-related dietary habits from baseline to 6 months.
详细描述
Hispanic women are 20% more likely to die of breast cancer than non Hispanic white women who are diagnosed at a similar age and stage. One reason for this disparity may be differences in post diagnosis dietary behaviors. In order to reduce this disparity, and to improve overall survivorship, culturally appropriate dietary interventions that teach women how to eat a diet high in fruits and vegetables and low in saturated fat need to be developed for Hispanic breast cancer survivors. The investigators propose to conduct a randomized controlled study (n=70, 35 per arm) to test the effects of the ¡Cocinar para su salud! program on changing dietary behaviors among Hispanic breast cancer survivors who have recently completed treatment. The ¡Cocinar para su salud! program is a 12 week course that provides hands on education and instruction in nutrition education, meal preparation, and food shopping in a group setting. All participants will be followed for a total of 12 months, have clinical assessments at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months, and monthly telephone contacts using motivational interview techniques.

入选标准
- •Age 21 years or greater. Both pre- and postmenopausal women will be included in this study.

- •Hispanic descent and fluent in Spanish.
- •History of histologically-confirmed stage 0, I, II, or III invasive breast carcinoma without evidence of disease recurrent or metastatic disease at trial entry.
- •Minimum of 3 months since last chemotherapy, biologic therapy (i.e., trastuzumab), radiation therapy, and/or breast surgery. Current use of hormonal therapy is permitted.
- •No uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, defined as Hgb A1C >
- •No uncontrolled comorbidities (i.e., hypertension).
- •Currently a non-smoker (rationale: women who smoke are much less likely to engage in healthy lifestyle behaviors, and it is probably more important for these women to stop smoking than it is to change their dietary patterns).
- •Consumes <5 servings of fruits and vegetables per day, as assessed by the Block Fruit and Vegetable Screener.
- •In the pre-contemplation, contemplation, or preparation stage of increasing daily fruit and vegetable intake.
- •Access to functional home phone or cell phone.

排除标准
