Brief Summary

MoviS is a randomized controlled trial on the effect of aerobic exercise training on quality of life (QoL) among breast cancer (BC) survivors. Patients randomized to the intervention arm will receive lifestyle recommendations (nutrition and exercise) and will undergo the MoviS Training program, whereas control arm patients will receive lifestyle recommendations. The MoviS Training program consists of 3 months, 3 times per week, aerobic exercise, which will be supervised both directly (2 days each week) and remotely (1 day each week). Exercise intensity (40% to 70% of heart rate reserve) and duration (20 to 60 mins) will be gradually increased throughout the training period. Both arms will receive counseling on psychological well-being. The primary outcome is the improvement of QoL. The secondary outcome is the improvement of the health-related parameters. Study variables will be sampled and compared between and within groups at the baseline, after the 3 month intervention period, ad interim in the short term (6 months) and long term (12 and 24 months).

  • Anthropometry

    Baseline - after 3, 6, 12, 24 months

  • Body composition

    Baseline - after 3, 6, 12, 24 months

  • Cardiac function indexes

    Baseline - after 3, 6, 12, 24 months

  • Heart rate variability

    Baseline - after 3 months

  • +13 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Diet habits

    Baseline - after 3, 6, 12, 24 months

  • Physical activity level

    Baseline - after 3, 6, 12, 24 months

Study Arms (2)

Interventional Arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Supervised exercise program: MoviS Training. Lifestyle (nutrition and exercise) counseling based on WCRF 2018 recommendations; psychological well-being counseling which comprises evaluation for anxiety and depression.

Behavioral: MoviS Training

Control Arm

NO INTERVENTION

Interventions

MoviS TrainingBEHAVIORAL

Patients will undergo a supervised exercise program consisting of 3 months of aerobic exercise training (2 d/week of directly supervised exercise and 1 d/week of remotely supervised exercise) with a progressive increase in exercise intensity (40-70% of heart rate reserve) and duration (20-60 min).
