A new Yale Cancer Center study finds a targeted diet and exercise intervention could improve outcomes for women undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.
Finishing chemotherapy is crucial for improving breast cancer treatment odds, but many patients with breast cancer do not follow their full treatment plan because of the side effects that come along with chemotherapy drugs.
In the study, published September 1st in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, Sanft and colleagues, including senior author Melinda Irwin, PhD, member of Yale Cancer Center, offered women recently diagnosed with breast cancer targeted interventions aimed at adopting dietary and physical activity guidelines with the goal of fighting chemotoxicity and improving therapy adherence.
Further explanation is needed since it wasn't the primary outcome of our study, but there's an exciting possibility that diet and exercise can influence chemotherapy outcomes through factors other than just how much of chemotherapy was completed."
