Eva Blondeaux, MD, University of Genova, Genova, Italy, shares insights from a trial (NCT03673306) evaluating breastfeeding in patients with breast cancer, revealing that lifestyle and pregnancy factors play a key role in whether breast cancer survivors choose to breastfeed. Patients who breastfed were more likely to have had no smoking history or alcohol consumption at diagnosis and had singleton pregnancies, while those who did not breastfeed were more likely to have had twin pregnancies and a smoking habit. These findings suggest that both lifestyle and pregnancy-related factors significantly influence a woman’s decision to breastfeed after breast cancer treatment. This interview took place at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) 2024 Congress in Barcelona, Spain.
