Summary

The current observational study aims at analysing current semiology on breast cancer patients aiming at noting indicators and signs with significant relationship with the disease outcomes.

To reach the primary objective, of identifying most prominent indicators and signs, a study group of at least 100 female patients with breast cancer diagnosis will be recruited to participate voluntarily. The study group will include at least 20 patients with metastatic cancer and 30 patients with indication to adjuvant chemotherapy. Their physical activity habits and lifestyle will be noted. The observational study will consist in the periodic registration of the overall physical and psychological condition. The variables and tests below will be measured and registered, periodically:

* periodical assessment of the quality of life
* periodical assessment of the fitness status of the subjects
* assessment of changes in bone density/progression of osteoporosis
* assessment of changes in cognitive function
* assessment of sleep disorders

The collected results will be statistically analysed, in order to:

* Identify variables that are statistically significantly different from expected values
* quantify statistically significant differences, whenever possible

The results will be used to better describe the breast cancer population
