Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Participating in a diet and exercise program may improve the quality of life of overweight and obese patients who are in remission from endometrial cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase I trial is studying an exercise and healthy diet program to see how well it works compared with standard care in patients in remission from stage I or stage II endometrial cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Weight change

    Analysis will be carried out by fitting a mixed model. Weight change will be expressed in terms of absolute and relative weight change. In addition, percent weight change will be calculated. To test the null hypotheses that the groups do not differ in terms of change in weight at 6 or 12 months, parameter estimates from the model will be used to construct subsequent t-test that the difference in means at 3, 6, or 12 months is zero.

    at baseline and 3, 6, and 12 months.

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Quantitative and qualitative nutrient intake

    at baseline and 3, 6, and 12 months.

  • Minutes spent in moderate and vigorous physical activity

    at baseline and 3, 6, and 12 months.

  • Body composition, using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry/densitometry (DEXA) methodology

    at baseline and 3, 6, and 12 months.

  • Biomarkers for metabolic syndrome and nutrition

    at baseline and 3, 6, and 12 months.

  • Self-efficacy

    at baseline and 3, 6, and 12 months.

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Arm I

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive a lifestyle intervention, "Survivors of Uterine Cancer Empowered by Exercise and Healthy Diet (SUCCEED)", on a group and individual basis consisting of nutrition, exercise, and behavioral modification counseling from a physician, psychologist, registered dietitian, and physical therapist. Sixteen group sessions will be conducted (10 weekly, 6 bi-weekly) for 6 months. Weight and body mass index, satisfaction with study treatment, and exercise/activity logs are assessed weekly and biweekly. Patients receive additional feedback and support during the weeks not met in a group, including newsletters and telephone and e-mail contact.

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients receive usual care informational brochures but no lifestyle counseling related to weight loss, physical activity, and nutrition.

Other: educational intervention
