Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a persistent problem that limits activities and causes distress. Considering the high prevalence of CRF among HCT survivors and the limitations of currently existing treatments, there is a pressing need for establishing safe and effective options for reducing CRF after HCT. Based on evidence supporting the use of yoga for CRF in non-HCT populations, yoga is one option worthy of evaluation for ameliorating CRF in HCT patients. Yoga is easy to implement, may be appealing to HCT patients, and can be self-administered, which would encourage long-term use and potentially lead to a better control of persistent CRF in HCT survivors. The primary aim of the proposed study is to assess the feasibility of a yoga intervention for HCT survivors with CRF. Outcomes from this feasibility study will provide the information needed to design a larger, adequately powered randomized controlled trial to evaluate yoga for CRF in HCT survivors. This study will employ a mixed-methods, single-arm, pretest-posttest design with focus groups. Twenty HCT survivors who report at least moderate fatigue will be recruited from the HCT clinic, Michigan Medicine. Participants will be enrolled in a six-week Restorative yoga program. The program will consist of a weekly, 60-minute yoga group class led by a certified yoga instructor along with twice-weekly home practice using yoga DVD.

Inclusion Criteria: - Adult HCT survivors as defined by being at least 100 days post autologous or allogeneic transplantation for a malignant disease. There is no restriction to enrollment by donor type, donor cell source, presence or absence of graft versus host disease. - Age = 18 years at the time of transplant. - A history of persistent CRF as defined by a perception of general CRF for at least one month before enrollment. - A history of at least moderate CRF as defined by a CRF score of 4 or more on a 10-point Visual Analog Scale. - Participants who are deemed qualified for yoga movements according to the Yoga Qualifying Movements Screening Checklist (a checklist developed by researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles to promote yoga safety through assessing the eligibility of each patient) Exclusion Criteria: - A self-reported current practice of yoga or any other mind-body therapy, including but not limited to meditation or hypnosis therapy in the past 30 days prior to study enrollment. - Subjects currently on supplemental oxygen support. - Subjects currently receiving hemodialysis. - Subjects currently admitted to an inpatient unit at Michigan Medicine. - Subjects with an uncontrolled, active infection. Subjects with viremia (Cytomegalovirus or other) may be enrolled, provided they are on active therapy and at the discretion of the treating physician. - Subjects who have relapsed after their autologous or allogeneic transplant. |

Primary | Practice log | Yoga practice at home will be documented on a log sheet to be filled out by participants at the end of each practice week. We will check class attendance during the weekly telephone call with the study participants. We will use a log sheet to document in-class yoga practice and location of the yoga performance. At the end of the program, the number of yoga practice hours per participant will be tabulated. This number will be used to evaluate participants' adherence to yoga practice. | Weekly during the six-week intervention period | |
Secondary | Side-effects/adverse events log | All subjects will be asked to complete a Patient-Reported Outcomes Version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE) weekly. The PRO-CTCAE questionnaire in this study includes a total of six items (numbness and tingling, dizziness, blurry vision, muscle pain, joint pain, others). | Weekly during the six-week intervention period | |
Secondary | Multidimensional Fatigue Symptom Inventory | The Multidimensional Fatigue Symptom Inventory-Short Form (MFSISF) will be used to measure fatigue in the past seven days. The MFSISF includes a total of 30 items that produce five subscales: general fatigue, physical fatigue, emotional fatigue, mental fatigue, and vigor. All items have a possible score of 0 to 4, 0 representing "not at all" and 4 being "extremely". | At baseline (before treatment) and within 10 days of the last in-class yoga session | |
Secondary | PROMIS-SF-Fatigue | The PROMIS-SF-Fatigue will be used to measure fatigue in the past seven days. The PROMIS-SF-fatigue is a unidimensional scale that measures general fatigue. It contains eight items with a possible score of 1 to 5 for each item. | At baseline (before treatment) and within 10 days of the last in-class yoga session | |
Secondary | Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form | The Brief Pain Inventory - Short Form (BPISF) will be used to measure pain in the past 24 hours. The BPISF is a 9-item questionnaire used to evaluate the severity of a participants' pain and the impact of pain on the patient's daily functioning. | At baseline (before treatment) and within 10 days of the last in-class yoga session | |
Secondary | PROMIS-SF-depression | The PROMIS-SF-depression will be used to measure depression in the past seven days. The PROMIS-SF-depression contains eight items with a possible score of 1 to 5 for each item (1: never, 5: always). | At baseline (before treatment) and within 10 days of the last in-class yoga session | |
Secondary | PROMIS-SF-sleep disturbance | The PROMIS-SF-sleep disturbance will be used to measure sleep disturbance in the past seven days. The PROMIS-SF-sleep disturbance contains eight items with a possible score of 1 to 5 for each item. | At baseline (before treatment) and within 10 days of the last in-class yoga session | |
Secondary | Index of Self-Regulation Scale | The Index of Self-Regulation Scale (ISR) is designed to measure individuals' level of self-regulation for health behaviors. The ISR contains nine items that produces three subscales: reconditioning, stimulus control, and behavioral monitoring. | At baseline (before treatment) and within 10 days of the last in-class yoga session | |
Secondary | Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease Scale | Self-efficacy will be measured using the Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease Scale (SEMCD). The SEMCD contains six items. Each item has a possible score of 1 to 10 (1: not at all confident, 10: totally confident). | At baseline (before treatment) and within 10 days of the last in-class yoga session | |
Secondary | PROMIS-SF- physical function | The PROMIS-SF- physical function contains 12 items with a possible score of 1 to 5 for each item (1: unable to do, 5: without any difficulty). All items are reversely coded. The total score can range from 12 to 60 with higher scores indicating better physical function. | At baseline (before treatment) and within 10 days of the last in-class yoga session | |
Secondary | electronic pedometer | The electronic pedometer is an objective measure of physical activity. It is a simple, unobtrusive device that can be placed on the belt or waistband to count the number of steps taken. | At baseline (before treatment) and within 10 days of the last in-class yoga session |
