Abstract
Technological support using e-health mobile applications (m-health) is a promising strategy to improve the adherence to healthy lifestyles in breast cancer survivors (excess in energy intake or low physical activity are determinants of the risk of recurrence, second cancers and cancer mortality). Moreover, cancer rehabilitation programs supervised by health professionals are needed due to the inherent characteristics of these breast cancer patients. Our main objective is to compare the clinical efficacy of a m-health lifestyle intervention system alone versus an integral strategy to improve Quality of Life in breast cancer survivors.
This therapeutic superiority study will use a two-arm, assessor blinded parallel RCT design. Women will be eligible if: they are diagnosed of stage I, II or III-A breast cancer; are between 25 and 75 years old; have a Body Mass Index > 25 kg/m2; they have basic ability to use mobile apps; they had completed adjuvant therapy except for hormone therapy; and they have some functional shoulder limitations. Participants will be randomized to one of the following groups: integral group will use a mobile application (BENECA APP) and will receive a face-to-face rehabilitation (8-weeks); m-health group will use the BENECA app for 2-months and will received usual care information. Study endpoints will be assessed after 8 weeks and 6 months. The primary outcome will be Quality of Life measured by The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core and breast module. The secondary outcomes: body composition; upper-body functionality (handgrip, Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire, goniometry); cognitive function (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, Trail Making Test); anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale); physical fitness (Short version of the Minnesota Leisure Time Physical Activity Questionnaire, Self-Efficacy Scale for Physical Activity); accelerometry and lymphedema.
This study has been designed to seek to address the new needs for support and treatment of breast cancer survivors, reflecting the emerging need to merge new low cost treatment options with much-needed involvement of health professionals in this type of patients.

Moreover, cancer rehabilitation programs supervised by health professionals are needed due to the inherent characteristics of these breast cancer patients. Our main objective is to compare the clinical efficacy of a m-health lifestyle intervention system alone versus an integral strategy to improve Quality of Life in breast cancer survivors.</p></sec><sec><title>Methods</title><p>This therapeutic superiority study will use a two-arm, assessor blinded parallel RCT design. Women will be eligible if: they are diagnosed of stage I, II or III-A breast cancer; are between 25 and 75 years old; have a Body Mass Index > 25 kg/m<sup>2</sup>; they have basic ability to use mobile apps; they had completed adjuvant therapy except for hormone therapy; and they have some functional shoulder limitations. Participants will be randomized to one of the following groups: integral group will use a mobile application (BENECA APP) and will receive a face-to-face rehabilitation (8-weeks); m-health group will use the BENECA app for 2-months and will received usual care information. Study endpoints will be assessed after 8 weeks and 6 months. The primary outcome will be Quality of Life measured by The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core and breast module. The secondary outcomes: body composition; upper-body functionality (handgrip, Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire, goniometry); cognitive function (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, Trail Making Test); anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale); physical fitness (Short version of the Minnesota Leisure Time Physical Activity Questionnaire, Self-Efficacy Scale for Physical Activity); accelerometry and lymphedema.</p></sec><sec><title>Discussion</title><p>This study has been designed to seek to address the new needs for support and treatment of breast cancer survivors, reflecting the emerging need to merge new low cost treatment options with much-needed involvement of health professionals in this type of patients.</p></sec><sec><title>Trial registration</title><p>ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02817724?term=NCT02817724&rank=1">NCT02817724</ext-link> (date of registration: 22/06/2016).</p></sec></abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><title>Keywords</title><kwd>Breast</kwd><kwd>Neoplasms</kwd><kwd>Occupational therapy</kwd><kwd>Mobile applications</kwd><kwd>Quality of life</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><award-group><funding-source><institution>Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (Plan Estatal de I+D+I 2013-2016), Fondo de Investigación Sanitaria del instituto de Salud Carlos III, Fondos Estructurales de la Unión Europea (FEDER)</institution></funding-source><award-id>PI14/01627</award-id><principal-award-recipient><name><surname>Arroyo-Morales</surname><given-names>Manuel</given-names></name></principal-award-recipient></award-group><award-group><funding-source><institution>Spanish Ministry of Education</institution></funding-source><award-id>FPU14/01069</award-id><principal-award-recipient><name><surname>Lozano-Lozano</surname><given-names>Mario</given-names></name></principal-award-recipient></award-group></funding-group><custom-meta-group><custom-meta><meta-name>issue-copyright-statement</meta-name><meta-value>© The Author(s) 2016</meta-value></custom-meta></custom-meta-group></article-meta></front><body><sec id="Sec1"><title>Background</title><p>Cancer is one of the most incident diseases worldwide. Over 14 million new cancer cases occur every year, but are projected to reach approximately 22 million by 2030 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>]. Among all cancer types, breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women, and approximately 4.4 million women worldwide live with a diagnosis of breast cancer [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>]. Fortunately, the survival rate is very encouraging; the estimated number of deaths from breast cancer is estimated to be less than one-third of new cases [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>]. Developments in screening and improved treatments for breast cancer have led to improved survival, and it is beginning to be regarded as a chronic disease [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>]. This new perspective of the disease has led to a growing need for long-term treatments [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR4">4</xref>] with an integrative strategy that takes into account the patients’ lifestyles and physical, cognitive and emotional impairments [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>].</p><p>Regarding the importance of the patients’ lifestyles (in physical activity and diet), the literature highlights the importance of maintaining healthy lifestyles to reduce the risk of recurrence, secondary cancers or death. There is strong evidence about the efficacy and safety of exercise and healthy diet to improve the patients’ quality of life (QoL) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>] and reduce the effects of cancer [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>]. Recent research reveals that even when patients know the benefits of interventions aimed at promoting energy balance among cancer survivors (in terms of intake and physical activity), it is unrealistic to expect that most of them, who have a strong sedentary habit, will comply with the current good practice guidelines [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>]. In addition, survivors report difficulties in adhering to and maintaining an appropriate lifestyle [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>]. Consequently, this energy imbalance increases the risk of cancer recurrence [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>] and, along with the functional limitations and emotional/occupational imbalance, reduces the QoL of breast cancer survivors (BCS) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>]. New strategies with a comprehensive approach of support must be developed to improve the adherence and motivation of these patients and to reduce the high cost involved in creating individualized exercise programs and diets [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>]. Currently, technological support is a promising strategy that could improve issues, such as barriers of distance, time, cost and motivational aspects [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>]. Telehealth systems, which are based on computers and mobile applications (m-health), offer a promising approach for both dietary and physical activity assessments [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>] and the patients’ motivation can be significantly increased through the immediate feedback provided by these systems [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref>]. A recent study has developed a mobile application to simultaneously collect data on diet and physical activity in adults [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>], but, to our knowledge, no programs exist that simultaneously collect data on diet and physical activity in cancer patients and provide immediate feedback with individualized recommendations.</p><p>In addition to the need to improve these patients’ lifestyles, the patients may experience physical, cognitive and emotional impairments. The most common upper body symptoms reported by BCS are related to shoulder impairments [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">19</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR21">21</xref>], although much research has supported the practice of performing early exercises to avoid limitations of range of motion (ROM) in the shoulder [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR22">22</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR23">23</xref>]. Moreover, cognitive impairment occurs in 10%–50% of these women [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR24">24</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR25">25</xref>], and the emotional distress caused by shifts in social support and the fear of recurrence and death has also impacted women’s wellbeing [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR26">26</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR27">27</xref>]. The performance of daily tasks (such as activities in daily living, work, and leisure tasks) are influence by all these complications and, along with unhealthy lifestyle habits, affect the overall QoL [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR22">22</xref>].</p><p>In this sense, occupational therapy is an effective intervention to improve the patients’ QoL, ROM or distress in different conditions [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR28">28</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR30">30</xref>]. However, to our knowledge, the only published randomized controlled trial evaluating occupational therapy in BCS is an intervention aimed at reducing the limitations of rural patients in their daily activities [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR31">31</xref>]. The authors found that a telephone-based problem-solving occupational therapy intervention program was feasible and had positive effects on the patients’ function, QoL and emotional state. However, the study had methodological limitations, such as a small simple size and intervention bias. Other previous studies with the aim of evaluating the effects of occupational therapy on cancer patients had several limitations, such as including any type of cancer [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR32">32</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR36">36</xref>], the use of a non-randomized controlled trial (RCT) approach [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR33">33</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR35">35</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR37">37</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR38">38</xref>], and pilot studies [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR31">31</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR36">36</xref>] involving very few patients [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR31">31</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR33">33</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR36">36</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR38">38</xref>].</p><p>This study arises from the need to establish an integrative and multidisciplinary strategy to support BCS by taking advantage of the features of these two proposals: first, the functionality and independence provided by a mobile application that patients can use when and wherever they choose; secondly, the imperative need for a supervised face-to-face intervention by a health professional, due to the inherent characteristics of these patients. Our study aims to compare the clinical efficacy of an m-health lifestyle intervention system alone versus an integrative strategy that also includes a face-to-face intervention in BCS. In this manuscript, we describe the design and methods of the study.</p></sec><sec id="Sec2"><title>Methods</title><sec id="Sec3"><title>Objectives</title><p>The main objective of this RCT is to assess if an integrated strategy that uses an m-health system in addition to a face-to-face treatment is better than the use of the m-health system alone to improve the immediate and long-term QoL of BCS. Second, we want to examine the effects of the interventions on the overall impact on functionality, body composition, anxiety and depression, physical measurement, lymphedema and cognitive function. The integral group will use the m-health and receive three occupational therapy sessions each week for an 8-week period. We will also study the effect of a 24-week period without rehabilitation on the studied variables. We hypothesize that support care based on an Occupational Therapy-supervised rehabilitation program will promote functionality and the combination with the mobile system will improve the patients’ lifestyles and QoL, reduce distress, and improve cognitive function and arm mobility.</p></sec><sec id="Sec4"><title>Research design and methods</title><p>The present study is a parallel group, assessor-blind, superiority RCT that will be conducted using assessments at baseline and immediately after the 8-weeks intervention.

This questionnaire is one of the most widely used instruments to measure QoL in cancer patients. The QLQ-C30 is composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures, as well as five functional scales, three symptom scales, a global health status/QoL scale, and six single items. The scores must be averaged and linearly transformed to obtain a range of scores from 0 to 100, with a higher score representing a greater response level. Thus, a high score for a functional scale represents a healthy level of functioning and a high score for the global health status represents a high QoL, but a high score for the symptom scale represents a high level of symptomatology [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR41">41</xref>].

The items assess the side effects of therapy, arm symptoms, breast symptoms, body image, and sexual function. Additionally, there are single items assessing sexual enjoyment, anxiety caused by hair loss, and future outlook. The scores range between 0–100 points. The procedure for scoring the breast cancer module is the same as the EORTC QLQ-C30 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR41">41</xref>]. For scales evaluating function, a higher score represents a higher level of functioning. For scales evaluating symptoms, a higher score indicates more severe symptoms.

QoL improvement is considered an indicator of cancer rehabilitation success [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR70">70</xref>]. If this integral option is effective, it will highlight the need for health systems to include disciplines such as occupational therapy in the supportive care of cancer patients during the survival period, as well as the potential advantage and cost reduction provided using a mobile app. Moreover, the results of this study could garner support for the use of this type of strategy in an increasing number of 17.8 million cancer patients in the European Union [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR71">71</xref>], with a high proportion of them claiming adequate rehabilitation services.</p></sec></body><back><glossary><title>Abbreviations</title><def-list><def-item><term>App</term><def><p>Mobile application</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>AROM</term><def><p>Active range of motion</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>BCS</term><def><p>Breast cancer survivors</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>DASH</term><def><p>Disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>EORT QLQ-BR23</term><def><p>European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Breast Cancer-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>EORTC QLQ-C30</term><def><p>European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core (30)</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>HADS</term><def><p>Hospital anxiety and depression scale</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>HRQoL</term><def><p>Health-related quality of life</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>m-Health</term><def><p>Mobile health application</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>QoL</term><def><p>Quality of life</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>RCT</term><def><p>Randomized controlled trial</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>ROM</term><def><p>Range of motion</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>TMT</term><def><p>Trail making test</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>VREM</term><def><p>Short version of the Minnesota leisure time physical activity questionnaire</p></def></def-item><def-item><term>WAIS-IV</term><def><p>Wechsler adult intelligence scale</p></def></def-item></def-list></glossary><ack><title>Acknowledgement</title><p>Not applicable.</p><sec id="FPar1"><title>Funding</title><p>The study was funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (Plan Estatal de I + D + I 2013-2016), Fondo de Investigación Sanitaria del Instituto de Salud Carlos III (PI14/01627), Fondos Estructurales de la Unión Europea (FEDER) and by the Spanish Ministry of Education (FPU14/01069).
