Effects of Activity on Diabetes Risk Among Breast Cancer Survivors on Endocrine Therapy (ABIDE)

Completed
Conditions
Breast Cancer
Registration Number
NCT06830486
Lead Sponsor
University of Colorado, Denver
Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to learn more about how physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness are related to diabetes risk among breast cancer patients prescribed an endocrine therapy.

Detailed Description

80 women between the ages of 18-80 years will be recruited for this study. The study design consists of two separate in-person visits to University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus or Colorado State University. The study consists of glucose testing, a body composition scan, exercise testing, and a two-week period of free living activity monitoring.
