Just published in @SportsMedicineJ. We explore how bringing the principles of periodization in exercise medicine can transform it into a precisely targeted therapy, by tailoring mode, volume, and intensity based on cancer type, stages, and treatments @ProfRobNewton @Doc_Haff

Excited to share our work published in Journal of Cancer Survivorship. Exercise can reduce chronic inflammation and changes induced by exercise on body composition could mediate the inflammatory response. This reduces cancer development and recurrence.

Just published by our team at the @EMRI_ECU at @EdithCowanUni and led by @FBettariga.
Changes in body composition following exercise were not consistently associated with inflammatory biomarker responses in breast cancer survivors with only LM significantly associated with IL-6 while a trend in LM and FM existed for some other inflammatory markers. Although these findings do not provide conclusive evidence, they highlight a possible role of exercise-induced body composition changes in mediating inflammation. Further research is needed to clarify whether targeted exercise interventions that improve body composition can contribute to reducing inflammation and, ultimately, impact breast cancer progression, recurrence, and mortality.

#Cardiac #autonomic #dysfunction is associated with worse #survival, #inflammation and #immunesuppression in patient with cancer... but #exercise may help to improve the symoato-vagal impariment... Our review about that is just published 👊 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4057…

@CDNCancerTrials 🇨🇦 C0.21 CHALLENGE trial
- ‘first-in-class’ RCT of 3y structured exercise program (>10 METhr/wk) vs education in stage 2/3 colon cancer after surgery & AT - Dr. Chris Booth
📌 N=889, 6 countries (>60% 🇨🇦), 90% stg 3
📌 improved DFS, HR 0.72 (p=0.0
📌 ⬆️ OS - 37% reduction in risk of death, NNT 14 at 8y
Amazing news for our patients 🤗
‼️recommending exercise is not enough - we need to support a behavior change with coaching and training🚶
