Testing insulin sensitivity after breast cancer treatment
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at how well your body uses insulin (a hormone that helps move sugar from the blood into cells) after breast cancer treatment. It may help researchers understand whether insulin sensitivity changes after chemotherapy and could guide future health monitoring.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a premenopausal woman who had breast cancer surgery
- You finished chemotherapy and at least 3 weeks have passed since it ended
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 25 and 30
- You do not already have type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome being treated with medicine
- You do not have known heart or blood vessel disease that needs medical treatment
- You do not currently smoke and you drink no more than 7 alcoholic drinks per week

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study will look at how insulin resistance works in the body by studying healthy adults. You may help researchers find new ways to understand and treat conditions like diabetes.
This study looks at how your metabolism (things like blood sugar and cholesterol) might be linked to tumor genes and growth in people with breast cancer. The goal is to find new ways to treat the disease based on your metabolic profile. You may be eligible if you have locally advanced breast cancer (Stage II–III) and are willing to share your medical records.
This trial tests if a combined exercise program can help restore metabolic flexibility in breast cancer survivors who recently finished chemotherapy. It may improve how your body uses energy and reduce long-term health risks.
This trial tests whether adding the drug dapagliflozin (a pill that lowers blood sugar) to standard chemotherapy before breast cancer surgery can improve outcomes. It is for women with high insulin levels and a higher BMI who are about to start chemotherapy.
This study tests different ways to add physical activity into your daily routine to help manage side effects from breast cancer treatment. The goal is to see if simple, practical strategies can improve your health and well-being while you are on aromatase inhibitors.
This study tests whether a 6-month program combining weekly supervised exercise and dietary advice can improve health in breast cancer survivors who have completed initial treatments. It aims to help with weight, heart health, and overall well-being.
