Review of Literature
Limitations
Small number of studies (n=47; only 14 RCTs)
Small sample sizes (heterogeneous)
Self-report measures of exercise
Methodology not well described

V. Clinical Exercise
Prescription Guidelines
General Guidelines
Cancer dx affects all aspects of physical
functioning
Unique manifestations
- Tumor
- Treatment
- Side effects
- Demographic profile
ACSM guidelines (3-5d/wk, 30-60mins, moderate
intensity)
Optimal guidelines not yet established
Prescription Guidelines
Mode
Prescription Guidelines
Frequency & Intensity
At least 3-5d/wk
Daily for deconditioned patients
Moderate Intensity
50-70% VO2max
60-80% HRmax
RPE 11-14
Prescription Guidelines
Duration & Progression
20-30mins (continuous)
Intermittment bouts (5-10 mins)
Initially in frequency & duration then intensity
Progression slower for
deconditioned pts & those
suffering severe side effects
General Guidelines
No evidence that one type of exercise is superior
Safety is the primary concern
Optimal program may combine resistance &
aerobic training
Key point is to be flexible - modify prescription
based on response to treatment(s)
Special Precautions

Breast Cancer
REHAB Trial
REHAB (Rehabilitation Exercise for Health After Breast
Cancer) Trial
Purpose
Determine the effects of exercise
training on cardiopulmonary, QOL,
and biologic outcomes in
postmenopausal b/c survivors
Outcomes
QOL, VO2peak, metabolic
hormones (insulin, IGF-1), sex
steroid hormones (estradiol,
estrogen), biomarkers of CVD
(CRP, lipids, etc.)
REHAB Trial
Method
53 participants EG (n=25) or CG
(n=28)
Cycle ergometry 3x/wk, 1535mins, 15wks, 70-75% VO2peak
Results
