About this study

Official title: OveRCoME: functiOnal Recovery Cancer MEtastasis

The research to be carried out is aimed at patients with metastatic breast cancer, specifically bone metastases. These patients will be recruited from two hospitals in Granada, provided they meet the established inclusion criteria. With this study, it is pretend to demonstrate the benefits of a program of therapeutic exercise and functional recovery of motor control with ultrasound feedback for the improvement of the functional capacity of the women eligible to participate in the study, as well as a positive impact on the quality of life of the patients other than their survival. The effect of the Overcome program will be compared with the usual treatment in this type of pathology. To do this, a pre-intervention evaluation and another at the end of the evaluation of the variables to be measured, such as functional capacity, will be carried out. In addition other evaluation will be carried out, after 6 months to assess the long-term effects.

In addition to the three main variables such as functional capacity and quality of life, another relationship of secondary variables will be studied, such as physical state, body composition or pain threshold, among others. This study in its entirety will be carried out by the "Oncology Patient Support Unit - Take Care" in the hands of a multidisciplinary team, carrying out the intervention protocolized by physiotherapists and occupational therapists.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • OvercomeOther

    Multimodal program individualized and supervised 12 weeks duration (three months), with two sessions weekly face-to-face. This program will combine aerobic exercise in unloading through the use of the TRAG (AlterG® Anti-Gravity Treadmill®), functional recovery of motor control with feedback ultrasound and occupational therapy. Physical activity will be measured in parallel with the test. Likewise, the patients will be monitored by means of a heart rate sensor.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Functional capacity

    6-minute walking test

    Measured: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks

  2. Quality of life (QLQ)

    QLQ-C30 (Quality of Life of Cancer Patients) by the "European organization for reseach and treatment of cáncer quality life" (EORTC). This scale has 30 items, divided into a global health scale, 5 function subscales and 9 items/symptom scales. The scoring is obtained from through an Excel template.

    Measured: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. hand strength

    Hand dynamometry, for which a digital dynamometer (TKK) 5101 Grip-D; Takey, Tokyo, Japan)

    Measured: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks

  2. Lower limb strength

    sit-up text

    Measured: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks

  3. Body composition

    Height will be measured (cm). Weight (kg), body mass index, skeletal muscle mass, and body fat percentage will be obtained using bioelectrical impedance analysis (InBody 720; Biospace, Seoul, South Korea)

    Measured: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks

  4. Muscle architecture of multifidus muscle

    Muscle ultrasound and quantitative elastosonography will be performed of the multifidus muscle. We will obtain information in real time on the parameters related to the structural organization of the tissues (normal or abnormal elasticity) with respect to the adjacent tissue.

    of the multifidus muscle.

    Measured: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks

  5. Pain threshold on pressure, by algometry

    Electronic algometer (Somedic AB, Farsta, Sweden)

    Measured: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks

  6. Anxiety and depression

    "Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale" (HADS). Composed of two subscales: Depression and Anxiety, each with seven items. The score of each subscale can vary between 0 and 21, since each item presents four response options, ranging from absence/minimal presence = 0, to maximum presence = 3.

    Measured: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks

  7. Opioid consumption and pain

    By the scale"Brief Pain Inventory-SF". This questionnaire consists of 15 items of which only two subscales are scored organized into mean pain intensity (items 3-6) and mean pain interference (items 9A-9G), the rest of the items do not score.

    Measured: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks

  8. Specific quality of life of the patient with bone metastasis

    QLQ-BM22 (quality of life questionnaire for bone metastases) by the "European organization for reseach and treatment of cáncer quality life" (EORTC). This questionnaire consists of 22 questions, which represent eight sections on symptom scales: five identify the painful sites, and three describe the characteristics of the pain; 14 headings represent functional scales: eight, of functional interferences, and six, refer to psychosocial aspects.

    Measured: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Overcome in people with Breast Neoplasm Female and Neoplasm Metastasis, run by Universidad de Granada 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 5 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Mario Lozano-Lozano, Dr (+34958249590, mlozano@ugr.es), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Functional capacity (time frame: Participants will be followed over 14 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 29 Nov 2023.
