Prevention of Frailty With Fisetin and Exercise in Breast Cancer Survivors

Major Program
Supportive Care and Symptom Management
Sponsor
Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center
Status
Recruiting
NCT ID
NCT06113016
This phase II trial tests how well fisetin and exercise works in preventing frailty in breast cancer survivors. Fisetin is a natural substance found in strawberries and other foods and is available as a nutritional supplement. Nutritional supplements may be useful in eliminating cells that have undergone a process called senescence. Senescence is when a cell ages and permanently stops dividing but does not die. Over time, large numbers of these cells build up in tissues throughout the body and can release harmful substances that cause inflammation and damage nearby healthy cells. Giving fisetin may eliminate senescent cells in patients with breast cancer undergoing physical activity.
