The planned sample size for each group is 156 healthy women at risk (defined as not meeting recommendations for a healthy lifestyle), 58 BC patients, and 86 BC survivors. Each participant is asked to test and evaluate a preliminary version of the MELIORA app over a 14-day period. The DCC takes place in the early stages of the project, as part of the intervention development phase, to inform the technical refinement and preliminary evaluation of the MELIORA digital app.', 'detailedDescription': "The Multimodal Engagement and Sustainable Lifestyle Interventions Optimizing Breast Cancer Risk Reduction Supported by Artificial Intelligence (MELIORA) project addresses the urgent need for innovative, multifaceted approaches to breast cancer (BC) prevention. It promotes sustainable behaviour change through an AI-driven digital intervention. Central to the project is the development and evaluation of the MELIORA Virtual Coach (VC) app, designed to enhance awareness and motivation, and to support healthier lifestyle choices related to physical activity, diet, and alcohol consumption, while also addressing potential implementation barriers.\n\nThe overall aim of the Data Collection Campaign (DCC) study is to gather comprehensive socio-demographic, health, lifestyle, and technology-usability data from the project's target participant groups to inform the development and refinement of the MELIORA digital tool and AI algorithms (i.e., the MELIORA app). The specific objectives of the study are to:\n\n* assess the usability of the early version of the MELIORA app and obtain suggestions for further refinement;\n* gather user feedback on the relevance, appropriateness, and usefulness of the app's educational content and format;\n* inform the design and development of acceptable strategies for behaviour change (e.g., reward strategies);\n* further develop AI algorithms for the MELIORA Virtual Coach based on user-provided information.\n\nThis DCC pilot study is employing a prospective, exploratory design and is being conducted across four European countries (Greece, Sweden, Spain, and Lithuania) over a 5-month period (from first participant in to last participant out). Recruitment is being carried out through project sites as follows: (i) healthy women at risk of BC in Greece, Spain, and Lithuania; (ii) BC patients in Lithuania and Spain; and (iii) BC survivors in Lithuania and Sweden. The study aims to recruit a total of 300 participants, with target sample sizes of 156 healthy women at risk of BC (defined as not meeting healthy lifestyle recommendations), 58 BC patients, and 86 BC survivors. Participants will test and evaluate a preliminary version of the MELIORA app for 14 days.\n\nFindings from this pilot will provide valuable insights to guide the development of the MELIORA digital tools and AI algorithms, ultimately contributing to improved BC prevention and management through personalised recommendations and interventions."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Individuals residing in Greece, Lithuania, Spain or Sweden.\n* Female adults (i.e. ≥18 years of age).\n* Ability to understand and complete the outcome measures in one of the participating countries' local languages.\n* Ability to provide fully informed consent.\n* Having access to and being able to use a smartphone that supports the project app (i.e., iOS or Android smartphone)\n* Meeting the criteria for allocation to one of the three following groups:\n\n * Healthy women with a calculated Βody Μass Ιndex (BMI) ≥ 25 or not meeting the World Health Organization's recommendations of ≥150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity per week.\n * Women currently undergoing active treatment for breast cancer or awaiting to begin active treatment for breast cancer.\n\n * Women survivors of BC having completed active treatment at least six months prior to study enrolment\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Inability to provide fully informed consent.\n* Inability to understand and communicate in one of the recruitment countries' local languages."}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT07190066', 'acronym': 'DCC', 'briefTitle': 'MELIORA Data Collection Campaigns', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Harokopio University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Data Collection Campaigns for Early Development Versions of the MELIORA Digital Tools', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'DCC101136791'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'DCC participants', 'description': 'Participants will recieve a preliminary version of the MELIORA VCI app', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Data Collection campaign']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Data Collection campaign', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'Participants will be asked to download the MELIROA app, compatible with iOS and Android, to their smartphones and test it for 14 days.
