Explore the impact of exercise on metabolic syndrome in breast cancer survivors, presented through a randomized controlled trial (RCT) and its implications for collaboration with the Women's Health Initiative (WHI). Learn about the positive effects of exercise targeting biologic mechanisms related to cancer risk and cardiometabolic disease. Discover exercise recommendations for cancer survivors, including strength training, moderate, and vigorous exercise, along with the benefits of achieving and maintaining a healthy weight.

Metabolic Syndrome (MSY) Blood Pressure ≥ 130/85 or medication HDL < 40 mg/dL(men) < 50 mg/dL (women) Insulin Resistance Waist Circumference > 40 in (men) > 35 in (women) Glucose ≥ 100 mg/dL or medication Triglycerides ≥ 150 mg/dLor medication AHA/NHLBI

Exercise Recommendations for Cancer Survivors • Strength Training • At least 2 x/week • Moderate Exercise • 150 min/week • Vigorous Exercise • 75 min/week “Achieve and maintain a healthy weight” Rock et al. 2012, Ca Cancer J Clin, Schmitz et al. 2010, Med Sci Sports Exerc
Screening of all newly diagnosed breast cancer survivors scheduled for surgery/treatment at the USC NCCC or LAC Written informed consent Randomization Baseline assessments (within 0-6 months post-treatment) Primary Aim: To determine whether a 16-week exercise intervention will improve components of MetSin overweight/obese breast cancer survivors Progressive combined exercise training (PCT) Usual Care 16 weeks N = 50 16 weeks N = 50 Endpoint assessments Follow-up assessments (3 months post-intervention) Progressive combined exercise training (optional) Dieli-Conwright et al., BMC Cancer, 2014
Outcome MeasuresBaseline (Week 0) & Post-Testing (month 4), Follow-up (PCT only, month 7)
