About this study
Official title: Effect of Physical Exercise on Ki-67 Levels in Women With Operable Breast Cancer Hormonal Receptor Positive, HER2 Negative
Observational study to evaluate the effect of physical exercise prior to surgery and adjuvant systemic treatment in women with newly diagnosed operable hormone receptor(HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancers
Read the detailed description
Effect of exercise on tumor aggressiveness and the impact on patients' quality of life.
Exercise is a safe and effective treatment for women diagnosed with breast cancer (BC), that has an integral benefit during and after treatments, however, the effect at the tumour microenvironment it is unknown; previous studies have evaluated the association between exercise and BC, finding a positive influence on it, which suggest that exercise could reduce the aggressiveness of the tumour. This study will explore the exercise impact in tumor microenvironment, as part of the therapy given to the patients prior to surgery and treatment. In addition, different serum biomarkers involved and the tailoring of exercise for these women will be evaluated. The effect of exercise on treatments secondary effects, biomarkers and quality of life will be evaluated after 6 months of BC surgery. This project will open a window of opportunity to explore new translational research as well as new treatment vias to the patients of this breast cancer subgroup.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
ExerciseOther
Exercise intervention adapted to maximum rate of oxygen consumption measured during incremental exercise (VO2level) of each patient, working between 60% to 100% VO2level. The activity will be walk-run in a treadmill. 10 sessions minimum
StretchingOther
Stretching and relaxing exercise during 30 minutes. Same number of sessions as intervention group
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| High intensity physical exercise | Supervised Exercise Group: Customized and supervised exercise high intensity training program during 2-3 weeks previous surgery. Receives: Other: Exercise | |
| Control | Supervised Stretching Group: a stretching and body balance classes will be developed to control the possible confounders and to control the exercise level of participants. Receives: Other: Stretching |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Tumor proliferation (Ki67)
Tumor proliferation (Ki67) will be assessed immunohistochemically at basal biopsies versus post-surgery tumor samples.
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months
Proliferation Score
A 50-gene quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay (PAM50) will be used to identify the intrinsic biological subtypes using RNA isolated from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue from baseline biopsies samples and post-surgery tumor samples.
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months
Secondary outcomes (9)
Change from baseline molecular subtypes
A 50-gene qPCR assay (PAM50) will be used to identify the intrinsic biological subtypes using RNA isolated from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue from baseline biopsies samples and post-surgery tumor samples.
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months
Changes in tumor microenvironment: levels of Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)
VEGF will be evaluated on tissue from baseline biopsies samples and post-surgery tumor samples by Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months
Changes in tumor microenvironment: levels of factor Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1)
HIF-1 will be evaluated on tissue from baseline biopsies samples and post-surgery tumor samples by Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months
Change in tumor microenvironment: levels of cleaved caspase 3
Levels of cleaved caspase 3 will be evaluated on tissue from baseline biopsies samples and post-surgery tumor samples by Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months
Oxygen uptake during peak exercise (VO2peak)
VO2peak will be obtained of the Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) performed at baseline and after the exercise program until surgery.
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months
Change in body composition
Change in body composition will be assessed by bioimpedance parameters. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a commonly used method for estimating body composition, and in particular body fat, and will be performed at baseline and after the exercise program until surgery.
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months
Change in fatigue levels
Change in fatigue levels will be assessed by questionnaire Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy: Fatigue (FACT-F). The physical well-being domain has 7 items with scores from 0 to 28 points; social/family well-being, 7 items with score from 0 to 28 points; emotional well-being, 6 items with score from 0 to 24 points; functional well-being, 7 items with score from 0 to 28 points; and fatigue subscale, 13 items with score from 0 to 52. Each item has five likert-type options graduated from 0 to 4: "Not at all", "A little bit"; Somewhat"; "Quite a bit"; "Very much'. The final score of FACT-F is obtained by adding the scores of the five domains, and may vary from 0 to 160 points. The higher the number of points, the better the quality of life and the less the fatigue of the patients is. To obtain the score, the negative questions are reverted; then the answers of the domains are added up, and a proportional average is carried out in case of non answered items.
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months
Change in quality of life levels
Change in quality of life levels will be assessed by questionnaire Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy: Breast Cancer (FACT-B). The FACT-B is a breast cancer-specific HRQoL instrument of the FACIT system. The 37-item are divided into five subscales, namely physical (PWB), social/family (SWB), emotional (EWB), functional well-beings (FWB), and the additional concerns for breast cancer (BCS). Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale. Negatively worded items were recoded such that a higher score indicates a better HRQoL. The FACT-B total score is the sum of scores of all five subscales.
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months
Change in depression levels
Change in depression levels will be assessed by questionnaire Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). The CES-D is a 20-item measure assessing symptoms of depression with items phrased as self-statements (e.g., "I felt hopeful about the future"). Respondents rate how frequently each item applied to them over the course of the past week. Ratings were based on a 4-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (rarely or none of the time [less than 1 day]) to 3 (most or all of the time [5-7 days]).
Measured: Post-surgery, an average of 6 months

What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Breast Cancer and Luminal B, run by Spanish Breast Cancer Research Group 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 8 inclusion and 5 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 13 Jan 2023. 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.
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?
