Breast Cancer Clinical Trial
Improving Exercise Capacity With Tailored Physical Activity in Lymphoma & Breast Cancer Patients Undergoing Tx
Summary
To provide critical participant enrollment data necessary to complete a larger definitive clinical trial in the future.
Full Description
This study is a 2-arm, parallel design, single-blind randomized controlled pilot study designed to compare the effects of a tailored multi-level physical activity intervention (PAI) vs healthy living intervention (HLI) on exercise capacity, cardiovascular and cognitive function, health-related quality of life (QOL), strength and fatigue among lymphoma and breast cancer patients undergoing active treatment with anthracycline based chemotherapy (anthra-bC).
