What this trial studies
This is a single-center, prospective observational study following women enrolled in the 13-week KHEOPS adapted physical activity (APA) program at Centre Léon Bérard. Participants complete two short online questionnaires each week and attend KHEOPS sessions either in person or remotely while clinical and motivational constructs derived from M‑PAC are recorded over time. Secondary aims include measuring the feasibility of the psychological measures and program participation, tracking cancer-related psychological symptoms, and relating changes in psychological factors to adherence and post-program physical activity levels. The study focuses on women undergoing or after surgery for non-metastatic breast cancer who can use a smartphone, tablet, or computer and read French.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Women aged 18 or older with non-metastatic breast cancer who are enrolled in the KHEOPS program at Centre Léon Bérard, can use a smartphone/computer/tablet, and read French are ideal candidates.
Not a fit: Patients with metastatic disease, those unable to complete online questionnaires or be followed for the study duration, or those without access to the required devices are unlikely to benefit from the study findings.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the findings could help tailor support to boost motivation and adherence to physical activity during and after treatment, potentially improving quality of life.
How similar studies have performed: Previous supervised and remote physical activity programs and M‑PAC–based measures have shown feasibility and improvements in quality of life and adherence in breast cancer populations, though applying them specifically within the KHEOPS program is relatively novel.
