Key Points Question Is adherence to cancer prevention lifestyle recommendations before, during, and after chemotherapy associated with disease recurrence and mortality in patients with high-risk breast cancer? Findings In this prospective cohort study of 1340 patients with high-risk breast cancer, strongest adherence to the American Cancer Society and American Institute of Cancer Research prevention recommendations was associated with a 37% reduced hazard of breast cancer recurrence and a 58% reduced hazard of mortality.
