About this study

Official title: Effect of a Diet and Physical Activity Intervention on Body Weight and Nutritional Patterns in Overweight and Obese Breast Cancer Survivors

This is a single-arm pre-post pilot study, to assess changes in weight, quality of life and cardiorespiratory fitness after a diet and physical activity intervention in breast cancer survivors and to asses possible relation between these changes.

Read the detailed description

Aim:

The present study assessed changes in weight, quality of life (QoL) and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) during a diet and physical activity (PA) intervention in breast cancer (BC) survivors and investigated the possible relation between these changes.

Methods:

The intervention of this 12-week single-arm pre-post pilot study involved group-based sessions: one-hour weekly diet sessions delivered by a dietician and 75-minute bi-weekly PA sessions of moderate-to-high intensity led by PA monitors. This intervention, designed to promote weight loss, targeted overweight/obese women who had completed treatment less than six months before recruitment. CRF and QoL were assessed before and after the intervention and compared using paired t-tests. Linear regression models, including CRF variables, weight change and participants' characteristics, were used to assess the independent association between change in CRF and change in QoL.

  • Weight loss interventionBehavioural

    Also called Dietary and Physical Activity Intervention

    This single-arm pre-post study, that involved one-hourly weekly diet sessions delivered by a dietician and 75-minute bi-weekly Physical Activity (PA) sessions of moderate-to-high intensity led by PA monitors, was offered to overweight and obese BC survivors shortly after treatment. Before and after the intervention, anthropometry, dietary information, Quality of Life (QoL) and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) were collected.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Weight loss intervention in people with Breast Cancer, run by Institut Català d'Oncologia at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Feb 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Weight loss (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Feb 2014.
