Nutrition Round – From Research to Practice Nutrition and Cancer Hot Topics: Diet and Breast Cancer Survivorship
Tuesday, October 25, 2022 * 1:00 PM – 2:30 PM ET
Announced in partnership with the American Cancer Institute
What does the latest science tell us about the relationship between diet and breast cancer survivors? A report from the World Cancer Research Fund International Continuing Update Project on Breast Cancer Survivors has some answers. This report is the most rigorous and systematic analysis of research on the effects of diet, weight, and physical activity on breast cancer survival.A new AICR/WCRF Global Cancer Update Program (formerly AICR/WCRF Continuous Update Project) analysis of breast cancer survivors will be available on October 25, 2022. International Journal of Cancer.
Join us on October 25 for a panel of experts who contributed to these latest Breast Cancer Survivor Reports.time Webinar Nutrition and Cancer Hot Topics: Diet and Breast Cancer Survivorship will be held concurrently with the release. Panelists will present the latest research findings on optimal dietary patterns and dietary interventions for patients diagnosed with breast cancer. In addition, they discuss the strengths and limitations of the evidence behind current dietary recommendations and help nutritional scientists identify where more research is needed.
Following the presentation, webinar attendees will be able to ask questions of the experts in an engaging panel discussion.

AICR/WCRF Global Cancer Update Program (formerly AICR/WCRF Continuous Update Project)
The Global Cancer Update Program, a newly updated and refocused version of the flagship AICR/WCRF research program (previously called the Continuous Update Project), is the world’s largest global cancer prevention and Contains survivor database.
The Global Cancer Update Program (CUP-Global) is an ongoing program developed by the World Cancer Research Fund International and the American Cancer Institute (AICR) that includes randomized controlled trials and cohorts worldwide. We analyze research to study diet, nutrition and health. and physical activity influence cancer risk and survival. The Global Cancer Update Program database currently covers 17 types of cancer. Breast cancer coverage is split into two separate reports. One is about breast cancer prevention and the other is about breast cancer survivorship. The database currently contains over 12,000 publications. The Continuously Updating Project has provided researchers and medical professionals with valuable reference material over his decade-plus. The findings will be used to inform national guidelines and policies on cancer prevention and survival. The Global Cancer Update Program builds on the strengths of the CUP and is refocused to address the highest priority issues in the field.
Dr. Nigel Brockton, vice president of research at AICR and a member of the Global Cancer Update Program Secretariat, shared some insights into our understanding of lifestyle factors and breast cancer survivors since the last Continuous Update project announcement. pointed out that there was an important change in Future reports will address the evidence on the impact of BMI at breast cancer diagnosis, breast cancer patient survival, and the impact of weight loss after breast cancer diagnosis. This is an important question because it is difficult to discern whether the weight loss is due to healthier lifestyle choices such as improved diet and exercise regimes, or whether the weight loss is due to the cancer itself.
Clinicians have traditionally advised breast cancer patients to eat as much as they want to maintain their weight during treatment, but Dr. Brockton says current breast cancer treatments are far less toxic than they used to be. pointed out that there are many , as a result, many patients actually gain weight during treatment. He added that the webinar will help clinicians distinguish between evidence and opinion, highlighting the latest evidence that diet can and should play a pivotal role in improving breast cancer survivorship. offer.
