Weight Management After Cancer for Survivors in Rural Communities
NCT07426952 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This study is testing a new program called WeCan-Rural, designed to help breast cancer survivors manage symptoms and build healthy habits like eating well, staying active, and managing their weight. These changes may help lower the risk of heart disease after cancer treatment. The study will answer two main questions: * Can we successfully recruit and keep participants in the study, and will they find the program helpful and easy to follow? * Will people who join the program see better results in areas like weight, symptoms, diet, physical activity, and confidence in managing their health compared to those who receive standard care? Here's what participants will do: * Visit their clinic twice (about 12 weeks apart) to be weighed, have their blood pressure checked, give a blood sample, and complete a short walking test * Fill out online surveys about their health, diet, physical activity, symptoms, and confidence in managing their health * Be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to either receive the WeCan-Rural program or standard health information * If assigned to the program, attend 12 weekly one-hour video sessions on Zoom with a trained therapist

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07426952
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07426952 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 40 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Duke University, which has 1,129 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 4 conditions, with Breast Cancer appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which WeCan-Rural Program is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT07426952 reports 3 study locations spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include North Carolina. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
