Official title
iMETX (Individualized Metabolic RX): a Pilot Study of an Environmental Intervention to Increase Energy Expenditure Among Breast Cancer Survivors
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to test the mechanics and feasibility of delivering an individualized intervention to increase physical activity in breast cancer survivors. In this study, researchers will test an intervention that uses a commonly worn activity monitor (i.e., global positioning system \[GPS\] enabled running watch) to see if they can "prescribe" specific ways to increase physical activity that are individually tailored to each participant. The goal is to help participants increase their daily physical activity without having to join a gym or other traditional fitness program. Researchers want to see if they can make specific recommendations (using an application that can be added to a cell phone, tablet and/or computer) on ways participants can slowly increase their activity based upon where they live and work and in a way that is tailored individually to them. For example, participants may be given a route to walk on their lunch break, or new place to park to allow for a longer walk to their job. The goal is to meet participants where they are in their current level of fitness, and to help them think of new and creative ways of increasing activity without the frustration of soreness or risk of injury. As they move more, the recommendations will increase with them.
