Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for postmenopausal women who have been treated for stage I-III breast cancer and have received chemotherapy within the last year. Participants will take fisetin, a natural substance, to see if it helps improve physical function.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
I am a postmenopausal woman.
I have been treated for stage I-III breast cancer.
I have received chemotherapy within the last 12 months.
I do not have active or recurrent breast cancer.
I have a frail health status with a short walking distance.
My platelet count is above 60,000/mm³.
I understand and am willing to sign an informed consent.
You may not be able to join if
I have had cancer-directed treatment within 30 days.
I have had surgery or radiation within the last 30 days.
I take prohibited medications and cannot stop them.
I have taken herbal medications with senolytic properties recently.
I am on therapeutic doses of anticoagulants.
I have trouble taking oral medication.
I have another condition that could affect my safety in this trial.
I am currently in another research study.

This phase II trial tests whether fisetin works to improve physical function in women who have received chemotherapy for stage I-III breast cancer treatment. Fisetin is a naturally occurring substance that is found in strawberries and other foods. Fisetin eliminates cells that have undergone a process called senescence. Senescence is when a cell ages and permanently stops dividing but does not die. Over time, large numbers of these cells build up in tissues throughout the body and can release harmful substances that causes inflammation and damages nearby healthy cells. Studies have shown that chemotherapy causes a build-up of these senescent cells. Giving fisetin may eliminate senescent cells and improve physical function in postmenopausal women who have received chemotherapy for breast cancer.

* No evidence of active/recurrent breast cancer or other serious chronic illnesses
* Have evidence of frail health, defined as a diminished 6-minute walk distance (\< 400m) at baseline
* Platelets \> 60,000/mm\^3
* White blood cell count \> 2,000/mm\^3

* Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of \>= 30mL/min/1.73m\^2 per the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) calculation
* Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document
Exclusion Criteria:
* Cancer-directed chemotherapy, biological therapy, or immunotherapy within 30 days prior to the start of study treatment. Exceptions include: trastuzumab, pertuzumab, pembrolizumab, tamoxifen, ribociclib, abemaciclib, aromatase inhibitors and/or ovarian suppression.
* Surgery and/or radiation within the last 30 days of starting study treatment (Exception: invasive non- major procedures such as an outpatient biopsy)
* Subjects taking medications that are considered prohibited.
* Exception: Subjects taking any of the medications listed in under "Temporary medication adjustment required" may participate if they are otherwise eligible AND the medication can be safely withheld (from immediately before the 1st study agent administration until at least 10 hours after the last study agent administration, for each dosing interval)
* On herbal and natural medications with possible senolytic properties (i.e., curcumin, kava kava, St. John's wort) and are unable or unwilling to hold its administration 2 days prior to and during study treatment dosing. Exceptions include cannabidiol (CBD), vitamins, probiotics, and fish oil. Other herbal and natural medications may be permitted or prohibited per clinician discretion
* Subjects taking potentially senolytic agents within the last year: fisetin, quercetin, luteolin, dasatinib or imatinib (or other tyrosine kinase inhibitors), piperlongumine, or navitoclax
* Subjects on therapeutic doses of anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin, heparin, low molecular weight heparin, factor Xa inhibitors, etc.)
* Issues with tolerating oral medication (such as but not limited to, inability to swallow pills (g-tubes not allowed), malabsorption issues, ongoing nausea or vomiting during screening, history of Crohn's, gastric bypass/reduction, or celiac disease)
* Any other condition that would, in the Investigator's judgment, contraindicate the patient's participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns with clinical study procedures
* Currently participating in another intervention research study seeking to improve functional status, alleviate frailty, muscle strength, exhaustion/fatigue, or cognitive function
