| الوصف: | Purpose: Exercise improves quality of life and reduces the side effects of cancer therapies. Nevertheless, attendance to exercise programs remains a challenge for patients. This study explored the feasibility of an exercise program in which women with breast cancer may be allowed to choose among three exercise delivery modalities. Methods: Forty-seven patients with breast cancer (stage I-IV) participated in a 12-week combined aerobic and resistance training program. The exercise modality was chosen by patients according to their preferences and needs among three options: the personal training program, the home-based program, or the group-based program. Exercise prescription was similar between the three modalities. Whereas the primary endpoint was feasibility, assessed through recruitment rate, attendance, adherence, dropout rate, tolerability, and safety, secondary endpoints included health-related skills and quality of life. Results: Out of 47 recruited patients, 24 chose the home-based program, 19 the personal training program, and four the group-based program. Six dropouts (13%) were registered, and no severe adverse events were recorded. The median program attendance was 98% for personal training programs, 96% for home-based programs, and 100% for group-based programs, whereas compliance resulted in more than 90% in each modality. At postintervention, a significant increase in cardiorespiratory fitness, lower body flexibility, and body weight was observed. Different quality-of-life domains were improved following the intervention, including physical and social functioning, fatigue, and appetite loss. No significant changes in other parameters were detected. Conclusions: An exercise prescription based on a patient-preferred delivery modality showed high feasibility in women with breast cancer. |
