Remotely Delivered, Culturally Tailored Weight Loss Interventions Among Latina Breast Cancer Survivors, ¡Vida! Trial

Trial Status: active

This clinical trial evaluates a remotely delivered, culturally tailored weight loss interventions in Latina breast cancer (BC) survivors. Cancer is the leading cause of death among Latinos, and among Latinas, BC is the leading cause of cancer death. An estimated 80% of Latinas in the United States have overweight/obesity, which is associated with poorer BC outcomes. However, few, if any, effective interventions exist to promote and maintain weight loss in Latina BC survivors. The development of an adaptive program that provides survivors with the support they need, as opposed to what is typically available, is essential to reducing persistent inequities in cancer survivorship.
