App aims to get breast cancer patients moving during chemo
NCT ID NCT03674515
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tested a smartphone app called 'Bouge' to see if it could help women with non-metastatic breast cancer increase their daily steps while on weekly Taxol chemotherapy. The goal was to add 3,000 steps per day over 90 days. Only 23 people enrolled, and the trial was stopped early, so we cannot draw firm conclusions.

- What this could lead to
- If it worked, this could show that a simple app helps breast cancer patients stay active during chemotherapy.
