Despite scientific, clinical and political incentives, alcohol and/or tobacco screening and brief intervention (SBI) services are poorly implemented in oncology settings. Motivational brief interventions are recognized as particularly effective in changing health behaviors, especially consumption behaviors. The motivational approach is more and more used in primary care setting but still few studies explore its effectiveness with breast cancer patients. This study aims to compare two intervention arms : educational advices intervention (EAI) versus brief motivational intervention (BMI) for alcohol and/or tobacco consumption in breast cancer women, during their treatment. In this pilot prospective randomized trial, various psychological and behavioral, variables are measured (alcohol and tobacco consumption, distress, anxiety and depressive disorders, quality of life, motivation for change, empowerment) before the brief intervention, and after 3 and 6 month.
