About this trial

Adapted physical activity (APA) was recognized as a non-drug therapy by the French Health Authority (HAS) in 2011. Very few studies have examined the efficiency of APA programs during the active phase of treatment in cancer patients. The investigators assumed that non-drug therapy such as APA could improve the quality of life and reduces health costs. The main objective of this study is to assess the efficiency of a standardized APA program, as compared to conventional management including simple recommendations for the practice of physical activity in women in phase active breast cancer treatment.
