About this study

Official title: The Effect of 12 Weeks of Aerobic Training Program on Erythrocyte Levels in Women With Breast Cancer After Chemotherapy

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of twelve weeks of aerobic exercise program on erythrocyte levels in women with breast cancer after chemotherapy.

Methods: Thirty women with breast cancer after chemotherapy of Sydalshhda hospital (aged between 47-65 years) volunteered for this study, and then randomly selected an exercise (n = 15) and control (n = 15) groups. Exercise group completed a twelve-week aerobic exercise training program consisted of three sessions per week, each session lasting 30 to 60 minutes 50 to 75 percent of their maximum heart rate reserve, while the control group were followed. Blood samples including red blood cell counts (RBC), hematocrit (HCT), hemoglobin (HB), peak oxygen consumption before and after 12 weeks of aerobic exercise were measured. For analysis of data, repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Exercise training in people with Cancer and Exercise, run by University of Isfahan.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

effect of exercise on CBC parameters (measured by ELISA methods) (time frame: up to 12 weeks). 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 24 Aug 2016.
