Walking away from cancer fatigue: simple steps to feel better
NCT ID NCT02785861
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study looked at whether a supervised or distance-supervised brisk walking program could help manage fatigue in breast cancer patients currently on hormone therapy. Seventeen women who had completed chemotherapy and/or radiation took part in a 6-week program, walking twice a week at a moderate pace. The goal was to see if regular walking could improve fatigue and overall quality of life.
