Description

Aina Llenas-Bladé, with thirteen colleagues, published a 2026 plan for a weight study in cancer care. The CANOBESE study tests a weight program during curative treatment. Obesity is common in cancer patients and raises the risk of complications. Yet guidelines focus on under-nutrition, not excess weight. Weight loss during treatment is rare over safety fears. The study will recruit fifty adults with a body mass index of 30 or more and new solid tumors.

The program pairs a tailored low-calorie, high-protein diet with home exercise. Sessions mix cardio and strength work under supervision. Behavioral support runs through the program, with added mind care when needed. Follow-up lasts as long as treatment, from three to nine months. The team will judge recruitment, retention, and how well patients stick to the plan.
