Phase 1 Trial of Exercise Treatment With Concurrent First-Line Therapy for Hormone Receptor Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 31 Aug 2026

This study will test any good and bad effects of aerobic exercise performed while you are receiving the usual first-line treatment for metastatic breast cancer. The researchers think that exercise helps delay the development of resistance to hormone therapy while slowing the growth of tumors.
