Fasten Onco Digital Therapy During Neoadjuvant Treatment for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

A Randomized, Multicentric, Open-Label Trial to Investigate the Benefit of Adding Fasten Onco Digital Therapy Integrating a Fasting Mimicking Diet During Neoadjuvant Treatment to Standard of Care, Compared to Standard of Care Alone, in Women (Aged 18 Years or Older), With Early-Stage II/III Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (FAST-01)

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This randomized, multicenter, open-label clinical study will evaluate whether adding the Fasten Onco digital therapy, which supports a fasting-mimicking diet (FMD), to standard neoadjuvant treatment can reduce treatment-related fatigue in adult women with stage II or III triple-negative breast cancer. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either standard neoadjuvant treatment alone or standard neoadjuvant treatment together with the Fasten Onco program. Participants assigned to Fasten Onco will follow a short fasting-mimicking diet around treatment cycles, supported by the Fasten Onco digital application and under medical supervision. The main objective is to compare fatigue between the two groups during neoadjuvant treatment. The study will also assess quality of life, treatment-related side effects, pathological response to treatment, and participants' adherence to and satisfaction with the Fasten Onco program.
