一个主要的问题是，很少有癌症幸存者符合身体活动推荐水平的指南。没有研究调查日本全国范围内乳腺癌幸存者的身体活动。因此，本研究的目的是确定乳腺癌幸存者之间的体力活动水平，检查乳腺癌幸存者之间的因素相关的体力活动，并确定乳腺癌幸存者的偏好和兴趣，在运动programmes.Methods和analysisWe的兴趣，以通知未来的程序development. We将管理一个横断面调查，使用自我报告问卷的乳腺癌幸存者。根据日本不同地区的人口分布，选择了50家机构，包括各种机构背景，我们将在每家机构中连续向30名完成初始治疗（激素治疗除外）的门诊患者分发问卷。目标样本量为1500名幸存者。我们将计算每个测量项目的描述性统计量，并进行单变量和多变量分析，使用结果的措施（如，体力活动和生活质量）有关的身体，心理，社会和环境factors.DiscussionThis是第一次全国性的调查乳腺癌幸存者之间的体力活动水平在日本。确定与体力活动相关的因素将有助于我们制定、传播和实施鼓励更多幸存者遵守体力活动指南的计划。伦理和传播该方案于2019年1月11日获得美国国家癌症中心机构审查委员会（IRB）的批准（ID：2018-295）。此外，许多参与机构需要当地IRB的伦理批准，而其他机构则不需要。因此，在需要时，个别设施获得当地IRB的批准。调查结果将通过同行审查的出版物和会议介绍予以传播。
IntroductionA major concern is that few cancer survivors meet the guidelines for recommended levels of physical activity. No studies have investigated physical activity among breast cancer survivors nationwide in Japan. Therefore, the aims of this study are to identify the levels of physical activity among breast cancer survivors, to examine factors-related physical activity among breast cancer survivors and to identify breast cancer survivors’ preferences for and interest in exercise programmes in order to inform the future programme development.Methods and analysisWe will administer a cross-sectional survey using a self-report questionnaire to breast cancer survivors. At each of 50 facilities selected to include a variety of institutional backgrounds according to the population distribution of different regions throughout Japan, we will consecutively distribute the questionnaire to 30 outpatients who have completed initial treatments, except for hormone therapy. The target sample size is 1500 survivors. We will calculate descriptive statistics for each measurement item and perform univariate and multivariate analyses using outcome measures (eg, physical activity and quality of life) related to physical, psychological, social and environmental factors.DiscussionThis is the first nationwide survey of physical activity levels among breast cancer survivors in Japan. Identifying the factors associated with physical activity will help us to develop, disseminate and implement programmes that encourage more survivors to adhere to physical activity guidelines.Ethics and disseminationThe protocol was approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of the National Cancer Center on 11 January 2019 (ID: 2018–295). In addition, many of the participating facilities required ethical approval from their local IRBs, while others did not. Accordingly, approval from the local IRBs of individual facilities was obtained when required. The findings will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations.
