Clinical Trial Summary

The participants are asked to take part in this clinical trial, a type of research study. The participants are SJLIFE study participants and may have a hard time exercising (exercise intolerance) due to side effects of cancer treatment received as a child.This study is being done to determine if a personalized exercise plan will help childhood cancer survivors who have exercise intolerance become more active. Primary Objectives: To achieve the goal of this study, we propose the following three Objectives: Primary Objective 1: To determine the efficacy of an individually tailored, home-delivered aerobic and strengthening intervention to improve exercise capacity in survivors of childhood cancer with exercise intolerance (peak oxygen uptake (peak VO2) <85% of age and sex predicted). Primary Objective 2: To determine the effects of an individually tailored, home-delivered aerobic and strengthening intervention on measures of cardiac, pulmonary, musculoskeletal, and neurosensory function in survivors of childhood cancer with exercise intolerance. Primary Objective 3: To determine the effects of an individually tailored, home-delivered aerobic and strengthening intervention on emotional health, participation in family and community activities, quality of life, and cognitive function in survivors of childhood cancer with exercise intolerance.


Clinical Trial Description

The design for this study will be a single-blind two-arm, prospective, randomized clinical trial. Performance testing results: Both groups of participants will be provided with the results of their performance testing. Individually tailored exercise program: Individuals randomized to receive an individually tailored exercise program will meet with an exercise specialist.Generalized exercise recommendations: Individuals randomized to receive the generalized exercise recommendations will receive a copy of the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans. ;
