This study examined the association of physical activity (PA) and sedentary time (ST) with pain, fatigue, and depressive symptoms over time among survivors of breast cancer (BC). The data showed that lower ST and higher PA is associated with lower depressive symptoms in long-term survivors of BC.

The authors evaluated the safety and effectiveness of paclitaxel (Taxol) in combination with alisertib (MLN8237) for the treatment of advanced breast cancer (BC). The authors observed that a weekly, reduced dose of paclitaxel combined with alisertib improved the survival without cancer worsening in these patients.

This study investigated the effectiveness of Pilates compared with circuit-based exercise in reducing joint pain during hormone therapy for women with breast cancer. The data showed that Pilates was more effective than circuit-based exercise in reducing joint pain for these patients.

This study is searching for participants with advanced solid tumors including breast cancer to examine the safety and effectiveness of experimental drug avapritinib (AYVAKIT). The main outcomes to be measured are the response to treatment and side effects. This trial is being conducted in Texas, US.

This article looked at the safety and effectiveness of abemaciclib (Verzenios) plus hormonal therapy (HT) in older patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+)/HER-2 negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (BC). The authors concluded that abemaciclib + HT was effective across all age groups and while higher rates of side effects were reported in older patients, these were manageable with dose changes.

This article looked at the use of physical activity (PA) in improving sleep problems in breast cancer (BC) survivors. The authors found that PA may be effective in improving sleep quality in BC survivors. 

This study investigated the effectiveness and safety of stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) in the treatment of patients with oligometastatic (few metastases) cancer. The data showed that the use of SABR in these patients was associated with high overall survival and low toxicity.

This study evaluated the impact of radiotherapy (RT) on controlling brain metastasis (BM). The study suggested that a single dose of RT was effective in controlling small BM. Larger BM could be controlled more effectively with multiple rounds of RT.

This review aims to discuss the current treatment options available for genitourinary (GU) symptoms related to menopause in breast cancer (BC) survivors. 

This trial is looking to examine the use of radiation on a shorter schedule of 5 days in a row is a safe and effective way to prevent breast cancer (BC) from coming back in people who have had a mastectomy (surgical removal of the breast). The main outcomes that are to be measured are local and regional disease recurrence. This trial is to be carried out in New York, the United States.
