Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • To measure the change in level of p16 expression from baseline to end of chemotherapy to a control group

    The comparison group will be taken from another study

    12 months

  • To measure the changes in the level of p16 expression from baseline and end of chemotherapy.

    The study will look at the change of p16 expression within patients on this study.

    2 - 6 months

Secondary Outcomes (12)

  • To measure changes in body compositional aspects of lean body mass (LBM)

    12 months

  • To measure changes in body compositional aspects of fat tissue mass (FM)

    12 months

  • To measure changes in body compositional aspects of percentage body fat (BF)

    12 months

  • To measure change in physical activity over the course of the study

    12 months

  • To measure change in physical function over the course of the study

    12 months

  • +7 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Intervention Cohort

EXPERIMENTAL

Breast cancer patients 65 and older undergoing chemotherapy and participating in a home-based physical activity intervention.

Behavioral: Walk with Ease Program

Interventions

The Walk With Ease Program sets a goal for participants to walk 30 minutes a day five times a week and gives helpful hints on how to achieve this goal.

Intervention Cohort

Eligibility Criteria

Age65 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsOlder Adult (65+)

  • Age 65 or older, female
  • Histologically confirmed Stage I, II or III breast cancer (if the patient has had more than one breast cancer, then the most recent diagnosis)
  • Scheduled to begin an appropriate adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen as defined by NCCN guidelines (www.nccn.org)
  • English speaking
  • IRB approved, signed written informed consent
  • Approval from their treating physician to engage in moderate-intensity physical activity
  • Patient-assessed ability to walk and engage in moderate physical activity
  • Willing and able to meet all study requirements.

You may not qualify if:

  • \- One or more significant medical conditions that in the physician's judgment preclude participation in the walking intervention.
