Summary

This study is testing whether a 16-week cardiac rehabilitation exercise program can improve heart health in women who have had early-stage breast cancer. One hundred participants will take part in the program, and researchers will measure changes in fitness, heart function, and quality of life. The goal is to see if this type of structured exercise can help reduce heart-related risks after cancer treatment.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that a structured exercise program improves heart health and quality of life for breast cancer survivors.
