Can breathing exercises ease distress in young breast cancer survivors?
NCT ID NCT07501637
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a virtual group program called Breath-Body-Mind (BBM) that uses slow breathing and gentle movements to help young breast cancer survivors (ages 18-50) cope with psychological distress. Thirty participants will be randomly assigned to either the BBM program or a general survivorship education group. The main goal is to see if a larger trial is feasible, but researchers will also measure changes in distress, fatigue, sleep, and other health markers.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Breath-Body-Mind (BBM) program (breathing exercises and gentle movements)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, group-based way to reduce stress and improve quality of life for young breast cancer survivors.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 30 participants. It is not designed to prove the program works, only to see if a larger trial is possible. Results may not apply to all survivors.
