About this study

Official title: Prescriptive Exercise Intervention During Active Treatment for Early Stage Breast Cancer Patients: A Breast Cancer Rehabilitation & Exercise Laboratory

The proposed study compares the outcomes of a physical activity intervention begun at diagnosis, continuing through active cancer treatment and into six months of survivorship compared to the outcomes of a control group receiving limited information on activity.

Read the detailed description

Patients (with stage 0 to stage III breast cancer)receiving chemotherapy, radiation or both chemotherapy and radiation will be included in the study.Randomization will be stratified by disease stage at diagnosis, treatment modalities planned, and hormonal status. Each patient will have a weekly goal of 2000 calories burned and 18 MET-hours of exercise which can be achieved in 4 to 7 hours of physical activity per week. Resistance training, using weight machines and aerobic training using treadmills, elliptical trainers and stationary bicycles, will be utilized in the intervention group. The control group will receive basic information on physical activity but not be instructed. Any physical activity in this group will be self-reported. Change in C-reactive protein will be the primary endpoint. Changes in other laboratory values, DEXA measurements, and quality of life measurements will be secondary endpoints.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes in CRP

    The primary endpoint for this study change in C-reactive protein.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change in laboratory values

    Compare changes in:

    • Glucose
    • Insulin
    • Estradiol
    • Testosterone
  2. Change in body composition

    Body composition parameters and bone density will be assessed using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) and compared between the two groups.

  3. Quality of Life

    Quality of Life will be measured and compared between the groups

  4. Overall Survival

    Comparing overall survival and progression free survival between groups.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Exercise Regimen in people with Early Stage Breast Cancer (Stage 0-III), run by Nevada Cancer Institute at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jul 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in CRP. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Jul 2011.
