Piotr Wysocki: Physicial exercise reduces the risk of recurrence – TNBC and HER2+/HR- breast cancer
Piotr Wysocki recently posted on LinkedIn:
“Soldato D et al. conducted a multicenter prospective cohort analysis comprising 10,359 breast cancer (BC) patients.
The authors assessed exposure to exercise using the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire-16, examining the dose/exposure-response of pretreatment exercise at distant recurrence-free intervals (DRFI). All patients were assessed at diagnosis (before any form of anticancer therapy) and longitudinally during follow-up visits at 1 (corresponding to 3-6 months after completion of primary treatment), 2, 4, and 6 years after diagnosis.
The authors demonstrated that increasing exercise ≥ 5 MET-h/wk was associated with a reduction in DRFI events up to approximately 25 MET-h/wk, but increasing exercise over this threshold did not provide any additional DRFI benefit. Compared with <5 MET-h/wk, the adjusted HR for DRFI was 0.82 (95% CI, 0.61 to 1.00) for ≥ 5 MET-h/wk.
Physical exercise reduced the risk of relapse by:
- 41% in receptor triple-negative BC patients (HR=0.59; 95% CI, 0.38 to 0.92)
- 63% in HER2-positive, non-luminal BC (HR–/HER2+) patients (HR, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.14 to 0.96)
- The benefit of exercise was observed predominantly in the premenopausal patients.”
