About this trial

The main objective of this project is to determine the possible association between the levels of certain bioactive lipids, which the body produces from dietary fatty acids, and tumor characteristics in breast cancer patients, as well as their relationship with overweight/obesity.

Specific objectives are:

* To analyse anthropometric and body composition changes. * To evaluate physical activity level. * To determine dietary profile. * To determine the adherence to Mediterranean dietary pattern. * To assess the quality of life. * To determine levels of specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators

The target sample size is 60 subjects. Participants will be allocated in four groups:

* Group 1: Postmenopausal healthy women with overweight/obesity (n=15) * Group 2: Postmenopausal healthy women with normoweight (n=15) * Group 3: Postmenopausal women with breast cancer and overweight/obesity (n=15) * Group 4: Postmenopausal women with breast cancer and normoweight (n=15)

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Lipid mediators profile

Lipid mediators will be analysed by targeted lipidomic method.

Time frame
Clinical Investigation Day 1 and Clinical Investigation Day 3

Secondary outcomes

1

Body weight

Weight of participants will be measured by bioimpedance and densitometry and reported in kg

Time frame
Clinical Investigation Day 1 and Clinical Investigation Day 3.
2

Height

Height of participants will be measured by stadiometer and reported in m.

Time frame
Clinical Investigation Day 1 and Clinical Investigation Day 3.
3

Body mass index

Body mass index will be calculated as follows: weight (kilograms)/ height (m)2 and will be also measured by densitometry and reported in kg/m2.

Time frame
Clinical Investigation Day 1 and Clinical Investigation Day 3.
4

Hip circumference

Hip circumference of participants in fasting condition will be analyzed by measuring tape and reported in cm.

Time frame
Clinical Investigation Day 1 and Clinical Investigation Day 3.
