Muscle oxygen and function in breast cancer survivors
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial measures how well your muscles use oxygen and how well you can perform daily activities after breast cancer treatment. It may help researchers understand how to improve recovery and physical function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 30 and 70 years old.
- You have been treated for breast cancer at least 6 months ago.
- You have finished your main cancer treatment (like surgery, chemo, or radiation).
- You are able to walk or do simple physical tests safely.
- You have not had a cancer recurrence or spread to other parts of the body.
- You do not have severe heart, lung, or muscle/joint problems that would make exercise unsafe.

This trial tests whether a tailored, home-based exercise plan can improve exercise capacity (how far and how safely you can be active) in people receiving cancer treatments that may affect the heart. It may help you build safer stamina while monitoring your heart health.
This study uses MRI (a large imaging machine) to measure how much oxygen your arm muscles are getting during and after exercise. Researchers want to understand muscle health and oxygen use, which could help treat muscle diseases in the future.
This study uses a safe, non-invasive light sensor (near-infrared spectroscopy) to measure how well your muscles use oxygen. Researchers want to learn if this tool can help monitor muscle health in people with breast or gynecological cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body.
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 studies whether a structured exercise program can improve cardiovascular (heart and blood vessel) health in post-menopausal women after early-stage breast cancer treatment. It specifically targets women who have trouble with exercise and have completed cancer treatment within the last 1 to 5 years.
This study looks at how a supervised exercise program affects muscle-related substances (myokines) in women who have finished breast cancer treatment. It may help understand how exercise can support recovery.
