%X We aimed to identify metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients' preferences for exercise programs and identify patients' characteristics associated with these preferences, to facilitate implementation of exercise programs for MBC patients.We used data from a multinational cross-sectional survey conducted among MBC patients. Patients reported their preferred exercise frequency, intensity, type, session duration, and supervision mode. We used latent class analysis to identify subgroups with similar preferences and descriptive statistics to compare demographic and clinical characteristics of patients within subgroups.Four distinct classes were identified based on data from 409 participants.
