What this Trial Is About
NEOMET is an exploratory randomized prospective, multicenter study whose primary aim is to explore if metabolomic signatures can be modified by a lifestyle intervention including dietary supplements and physical exercise intervention, in eBC patients candidate to NAT. Eligible patients will be randomised to one of 4 groups: A. NAT, according to molecular subtype; B. NAT plus nutritional supplementation; C. NAT plus supervised physical exercise; D. NAT plus supervised physical exercise plus nutritional supplementation. Nutritional supplementazion will consist of two main long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids omega-3 (n-3 Lc-PUFA), EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) plus a source of palmitoleic acid (hexadecenoic acid).
