Exercise for muscle loss in breast or gynecological cancer survivors
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can help women who have finished cancer treatment improve muscle strength and function. It may be a good option if you feel weak or have lost muscle.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman over 18 years old
- You have been diagnosed with breast or gynecological cancer

- You finished your main cancer treatment (surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation) at least 2 weeks ago and no more than 2 years ago
- Your doctor has approved you for physical exercise

This study tests whether a structured exercise program can help breast cancer survivors who have lost muscle strength and mass (sarcopenia) rebuild their muscle and improve their physical function. Participation involves supervised or guided exercises designed to be safe for your condition.
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.
This trial compares two types of exercise programs for breast cancer survivors to see which one improves quality of life more. You will either attend supervised rehab sessions at a facility or follow a resistance exercise program at home.
This study looks at how a program of different exercises (like strength and balance training) might improve muscle quality in older women. It may help you become stronger and move better.
This trial tests whether a structured physical therapy program can help prevent or reduce muscle and bone loss caused by cancer and its treatment. It focuses on people with non-metastatic cancer who are receiving chemotherapy and have experienced cancer-related weight loss.
This study tests a personalized exercise program using resistance training (lifting weights) to help cancer survivors rebuild strength, improve body composition, and move better after treatment. It is designed for people who are ready to start exercising safely and want to regain function.
