Feasibility of a Physical Activity Program in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer and Overweight: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 27 Apr 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to test a physical activity program in patients with metastatic breast cancer and overweight receiving endocrine-based treatment. The aim of the study is to assess the feasibility of a 12-week physical activity program in this patient group in terms of adherence, recruitment rate, retention and acceptability. Potential effects on metabolic health, body composition, physical performance, obesity-related biomarkers and patient-related outcomes are explored. The hypothesis is that improving metabolic health and health-related quality of life through physical activity can optimize cancer care. Participants will randomized 2:1 to either a physical activity program or care as usual.
