Summary
Breast cancer survivors frequently experience persistent sleep disturbance, cancer-related fatigue, and reduced health-related quality of life after completion of primary treatment. Although exercise is recommended as an important component of survivorship care, evidence regarding the effectiveness of slow jogging remains limited. This investigator-initiated, single-center, parallel-group randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a standardized 12-week slow jogging exercise program in women aged 20 years or older with hormone receptor-positive Stage I-IV breast cancer who have completed primary cancer treatment within the previous 12 months. Participants will be randomized using permuted block randomization (block size = 6) to receive either a slow jogging intervention plus usual care or usual care alone. The primary outcome is sleep quality measured by the Chinese Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (CPSQI). Secondary outcomes include cancer-related fatigue measured by the Taiwanese Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI-T) and health-related quality of life measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast (FACT-B). Outcomes will be assessed at baseline and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12.
