Exercise Intervention in Targeting Adiposity and Inflammation With Movement to Improve Prognosis in Breast Cancer
Withdrawn before enrolling · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Cancer Survivor, Central Obesity, Estrogen Receptor Positive, Postmenopausal, Progesterone Receptor Positive, Stage I Breast Cancer, Stage IA Breast Cancer, Stage IB Breast Cancer, Stage II Breast Cancer, Stage IIA Breast Cancer, Stage IIB Breast Cancer, Stage III Breast Cancer, Stage IIIA Breast Cancer, Stage IIIB Breast Cancer, Stage IIIC Breast Cancer
In brief
This randomized phase II trial studies how well exercise intervention works in targeting adiposity and inflammation with movement to improve prognosis in stage I-III breast cancer survivors. Different types of exercise may reduce inflammation in fat tissue and minimize the risk of cancer recurrence related to being overweight or obese.
