What is the (HOW) Study?

The majority of women who get breast cancer have none of the known clinical risk factors. This means we don't know what causes breast cancer or how to prevent it. The Health of Women (HOW) Study is a first-of-its-kind international online study for women and men with and without a history of breast cancer. We will collect information about your health, your job, your diet, and your family history, among other topics that can help us get a better understanding of breast cancer and its potential causes. Periodically, we will send you questionnaires about anything and everything. All you have to do is fill them out online. It’s that simple. This is a partnership and we need you for the long haul. The more questionnaires you fill out, the more information we will have that can help us have a better understanding of why women get breast cancer.

Who is (HOW)?

(HOW) is all about you and what you can do to end breast cancer. (HOW) is also about the researchers who can use this data to have a better understanding of ways we can prevent breast cancer. (HOW) is all of us, working together, to bring an end to this disease. The (HOW) Study is being conducted at the Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation, in collaboration with City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center.
