Methods: The survey was carried out through the web or handily delivered printed copies between October 2014 and April 2015, in Italy. It was composed of 27 questions intended to gather information on the characteristics of participants and to examine their clinical habits in this context, and participation was totally free and anonymous.

Aims: Diabetes and cancer frequently coexist in the same subject, often having relevant effects on the management and prognosis of the oncologic patient. However, existing guidelines do not deal with many clinical issues in this setting appropriately. In evaluating the opinions of Diabetologists and Oncologists dealing with diabetes care in people with cancer, the Italian Association of Diabetologists (AMD) promoted a dedicated exploratory survey.
