研究概览
简要总结
The investigators propose to examine 121 postmenopausal women diagnosed with hormone-receptor positive breast cancer who have been taking aromatase inhibitors (AI) for at least 6 months and are experiencing at least mild arthralgia originating during AI treatment, the yearlong effect of exercise vs. attention control (health education), and on toxic side effects of AI.
详细描述
The investigators propose to examine, in 121 postmenopausal breast cancer survivors who have been taking an AI for at least 2 months and are currently experiencing at least mild arthralgia associated with AI use, the effect of a randomized controlled exercise intervention vs. attention control (health education) on severity of arthralgia, endocrine-related Quality of Life(QOL), Bone Mineral Density(BMD), and mediators/mechanisms influencing the effect of exercise on arthralgia severity. Women will be randomized to a year long exercise program or attention control group. Women randomized to exercise will participate in 150 min/wk of aerobic exercise and a twice-weekly strength training program. The investigators will conduct baseline, six-, and 12-month clinic visits, as well as a 3- and 9-month mailing to evaluate the effect of the intervention on study outcomes.

结局指标
主要结局
Change from Baseline in Arthralgia Severity
时间窗: 12 months
Measured using the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI). Subjects are asked to rate pain by circling a number from 0-10 that describes pain at its "worst", "least", and "average" with 0 being no pain and 10 being "pain as bad as you can imagine".
