TALIEHO Trial Summary
This trial is testing whether a light-intensity physical activity intervention can improve the health of obese, older adult breast cancer survivors, compared to usual care.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for older adult female breast cancer survivors, aged 65-84, who are obese with a BMI ≥30 and have been post-treatment for 1-10 years. Participants should drink alcohol minimally, be fluent in English, mentally sharp as per specific tests, and have their doctor's approval. Those very active or with serious health issues affecting participation are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing if light-intensity physical activity done at home can improve the health of these women compared to those receiving usual care without this exercise program. It's a small-scale test where participants are randomly assigned to one of the two groups.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves light-intensity exercise, side effects might include muscle soreness or strain. However, because it's gentle activity designed for older adults, severe side effects are not commonly expected.
