About this study

Official title: RISE - A Pilot Study to Reduce Sitting Time Among Breast Cancer Survivors

This 3-month study will test whether a program to reduce sitting time, for breast cancer survivors experiencing some physical limitations, can improve their physical function and other important aspects of quality of life.

Read the detailed description

Many cancer survivors experience long-term physical problems following their cancer treatments and can often seem much older than same age peers who were never treated for cancer. This is known as accelerated aging. One way to improve accelerated aging is to increase moderate to vigorous intensity exercise; however, for many cancer survivors, especially those with physical limitations, increasing exercise levels is not possible. Another potential way to improve accelerated aging may be to decrease the amount of time spent sitting. Long periods of sitting are related to many physical and health problems. Cancer survivors spend more than 9 hours a day sitting and often increase the amount they sit after their cancer treatments. This study could help identify realistic intervention targets for many cancer survivors and be used to guide recommendations for improving physical function and quality of life after cancer.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Behavioral: Sit LessBehavioural

    The Sit Less arm uses habit formation, social cognitive theory, and motivational interviewing techniques to support behavior change and includes: 1) 7 health coaching sessions to set personalized goals and review progress; 2) wearing an activPAL (thigh worn accelerometer that measures sitting time); 3) intervention tools to support behavior change (e.g., standing desk, wrist worn monitor).

What is being measured

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

  1. Retention rate of enrolled participants

    Percent of participants returning for the 3 month measures

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. 4 meter walk test

    Measure of physical functioning

    Measured: 3 months

  2. 30-second Sit-to-Stand Test

    Measure of physical functioning

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Timed Up and Go (TUG)

    Measure of physical functioning

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Patient Reported Measurement Information System - Physical Function

    Measure of Self-Report Physical Function, standardized T-score, higher scores indicated better functioning

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Behavioral: Sit Less in people with Sedentary Behavior and Sedentary Time, run by University of California, San Diego 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 5 inclusion and 4 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 12 May 2023. 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?

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?

Retention rate of enrolled participants (time frame: 3 months). 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 12 May 2023.
