Study Summary
Study Title: Gene Expression, Meditative Movement and Emotional Distress (GME) Background and Objectives: Breast cancer survivors (BCS) often report decrements in cognitive functioning. Cognitive impairment (CI) is generally understood as resulting from chemotherapy or radiation, but may also result from chronic emotional distress experienced by breast cancer patients and survivors. Meditation and exercise are both known to reduce stress, with growing evidence for the potential of each to also improve cognitive functioning in cancer patients and survivors. A Meditative Movement (MM) program (Qigong/Tai Chi Easy) offers the potential of combining both benefits of meditation and exercise for breast cancer survivors. This is a pilot study, testing the MM program to effect changes in cognitive functioning and associated symptoms/conditions such as anxiety, depression, sleep quality and using gene expression factors as biomarkers to potentially measure the molecular signature of these changes. Forty BCS will be consented and assigned to an intensive eight week MM program. Cognitive functioning and associated symptoms/conditions will be assessed before and after the 8-week MM program to examine the participants' behaviors and symptoms. Peripheral blood samples will be collected before and after the 8-week MM program and will be analyzed for gene expression changes. If successful, this study may provide preliminary data for a full powered randomized control trial if results show promise in the psycho-behavioral outcomes and genomic expression results.
