Every Day Counts: A Lifestyle Program for Women With Metastatic Breast Cancer
This study is testing a 16-week lifestyle program called "Every Day Counts" for women with metastatic breast cancer (cancer that has spread to other parts of the body). The program focuses on diet and physical activity to improve body composition (the amount of fat, bone, muscle, and water in your body). Some participants will first receive an "Attention Control" program about home/work organization, and then get the lifestyle program later. Researchers want to see if the Every Day Counts program improves quality of life, body composition, and certain blood markers. You can join if you are an adult woman (18 or older) with confirmed metastatic breast cancer, are clinically stable, and your oncologist (cancer doctor) approves your participation. The study aims to enroll 176 women.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study, meaning participants will receive a specific intervention. It plans to enroll 176 women and compares a lifestyle intervention to an attention control group.
- What's involved
- The lifestyle intervention lasts for 16 weeks. Participants will have assessments at 4 months and 8 months.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants will be followed for intervention adherence and retention at 4 months and 8 months.

- Change in Quality of LifeChange from baseline to 4 months
Patient reported outcomes as measured by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapies Breast, Fatigue and Endocrine Symptoms (FACT-B, F and ES). The FACT-G is the overarching measure with a score range of 0-108; FACT-B (breast) subscale score range is 0-40; FACT-ES (endocrine symptoms) subscale score range is 0-76; FACT-F (fatigue) subscale is 0-52. Higher scores are better.
