abstract = {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.
Class 1 $(47\%$ of participants) is characterized by a
preference for moderate exercise with supervision within the
health care setting. Most participants in this class had
bone metastases. Class 2 $(30\%)$ is characterized by a
preference for vigorous exercise with supervision. This
class included participants who were, on average, younger,
and had a higher education level. Class 3 $(13\%)$ is
characterized by a preference for active walking. These
participants were less likely to have bone metastases or
comorbidities. Class 4 $(10\%)$ is characterized by a
preference for recreational walking and included
participants who were, on average, older, and less likely to
be employed.We identified four classes of patients with
different preferences for exercise programs. Many patients
with MBC express exercise preferences that meet the current
guideline recommendations. Some patients with MBC may
benefit from targeted education to align their preferences
and behavior with the amount of exercise that is necessary
to gain health benefits.},
