Summary

Breast cancer and its treatment with radiotherapy may be associated with systemic inflammatory, hematological, cardiac, body composition, functional and quality-of-life alterations. Exercise has emerged as a non-pharmacological strategy with potential benefits during oncological treatment; however, further evidence is needed regarding the effects of supervised moderate-intensity interval aerobic exercise during radiotherapy.

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of a supervised moderate-intensity interval aerobic exercise programme on systemic inflammatory and immune-derived hematological indices, cardiac biomarkers, body composition, muscle strength, lower-limb power, sleep quality and breast cancer-specific quality of life in women with breast cancer undergoing radiotherapy.

Participants will be allocated to either an experimental group performing supervised moderate-intensity interval aerobic exercise during radiotherapy or to a control group receiving usual care without structured exercise during the study period. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline and after completion of the intervention period.

  • Inflamation
  • Immune System
  • Physical Fitness
  • Breast Cancer

Interventions

OTHER

Moderate-Intensity Interval Aerobic Exercise

Structured and supervised aerobic exercise intervention based on moderate-intensity interval training. The programme includes repeated aerobic exercise bouts interspersed with recovery periods. Exercise intensity is individually prescribed and adjusted according to baseline physiological assessment, including blood lactate response, perceived exertion and clinical tolerance. The intervention is delivered during the radiotherapy treatment period as an adjunct to standard oncological care.
