This study compares two strength exercise programs to see which better improves arm and shoulder function after breast cancer surgery. If you qualify, you'll be placed in one of the two exercise groups and help researchers learn how to best support recovery.
This study tests whether starting specific physical therapy exercises early or later after breast cancer surgery is better for recovery. It may help women who are at risk for arm and shoulder problems after surgery.
This study tests whether a special exercise program before breast cancer surgery can help you recover faster. You would start the program a few weeks before your operation.
This study tests an exercise intervention for people with early-to-mid stage breast cancer soon after curative breast surgery (and after chemo and/or radiation if you had it). It may help improve recovery, physical strength, and overall wellbeing by making exercise safer and more structured during this period.
This study tests whether doing shoulder exercises before mastectomy reduces pain and inflammation after surgery and improves recovery of arm and shoulder function. If eligible, you will exercise before your surgery and we will track your progress.
This trial tests whether doing specific exercises before breast cancer surgery helps reduce arm swelling (lymphedema) after surgery, and improves quality of life and care needs. You would participate in a supervised exercise program before your surgery and then follow up after.
