NCT ID NCT06100263
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a 12-week exercise program for Black women who have finished breast cancer treatment. The goal is to see if the program is easy to follow and helps improve well-being. About 75 women will take part, with some starting the program right away and others waiting. Researchers will check how many women stick with the program and how satisfied they feel.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: Women will be eligible if they meet the following criteria: * self-identify as Black or African American or Afro-Latina/e; * are ≥18 years old; * have a confirmed diagnosis of breast cancer, Stage I to IIIA; * have completed primary active treatment (i.e., surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation) within 5 years prior to study start where concomitant hormonal therapy is acceptable; * are not meeting current cancer-specific resistance exercise guidelines of ≥ 2 times per week; and * are able to speak and understand English. Exclusion Criteria: * metastatic disease; * medical reason that precludes them from increasing current exercise levels; * planned elective surgery during study period; * pregnant or plans to become pregnant during the study period; * plans to move out of United States during the study period; (the rationale for this exclusion is that it will be difficult to conduct the in-person assessments if a participant leaves the United States); * current enrollment in another exercise trial; and/or * inability to pass exercise pre-screening or receive physician consent to increase current physical activity levels.
