Could a smartphone app help prevent breast cancer? researchers begin testing
NCT ID NCT07190066
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing an early version of the MELIORA app, designed to help women adopt healthier habits like more physical activity, better diet, and less alcohol. About 300 women from four countries—including those at higher risk, current patients, and survivors—will use the app for 14 days and give feedback. The goal is to improve the app's usability and educational content before a larger trial.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- MELIORA digital app (behavioral intervention for physical activity, diet, and alcohol reduction)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this pilot will help refine a digital tool that could support healthier lifestyles and potentially lower breast cancer risk.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small usability test (14 days, 300 participants) focused on app feedback, not on health outcomes. The app may not ultimately reduce cancer risk.
