In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Inclusion Criteria: * Women age \>=65 * Diagnosed with stage I-III invasive breast cancer * BMI between 18-50 kg/m2 * Scheduled to begin at least 10 weeks of neoadjuvant or adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy for curative intent * If enrolled in clinical chemotherapy drug trial, considered eligible if regimen includes an anthracycline or a taxane, unless the trial alters the chemotherapy agents/doses according to patient response (e.g.; I-SPY trials) * Self-reported ability to walk for 6 minutes and/or 2 blocks (with or without assistive device) * Ability to provide written informed consent. * Ability to understand, speak, and read English. This is because many of the study instruments used are not readily available in multiple languages.
