Study Summary

This study is designed to find out how engaging in regular exercise (or not) alters the biology of breast tumors as well as the normal tissue (if available) surrounding the tumor. The investigators hope that findings from this initial study will guide the design of future studies to examine how changes in exercise alter breast tumor biology.

Primary Outcome

Eight-μm-thick representative sections of the fresh-frozen sample will be microdissected with a needle under a stereomicroscope (Olympus SZ61), to ensure \>70% of tumor cell content as previously described.(36) Matched germline DNA will be microdissected from adjacent normal breast tissue (if available) for each case; to avoid the possibility of morphologically appearing non-neoplastic cells harboring somatic mutations; we will prioritize the microdissection of stromal cells and avoid normal bre
