Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a 16-week virtual, home-based, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) exercise program will improve physical, cognitive, and emotional health among young adult survivors of pediatric brain tumors. The names of the study interventions involved in this study are/is: - High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)


Clinical Trial Description

This is a Pilot/Feasibility, randomized control, research study that will compare an exercise group to a control group on physical, social, and overall quality of life needs of pediatric brain tumor survivors who are now young adults. Participants will be randomized (selected at random) for two groups: HIIT program group will complete a 16-week intervention period followed by a 16-week period with no intervention and the waitlisted control group will complete a 16-week period and will perform their usual, daily activities followed by an optional 16-week period in which they can complete the HIIT program. Research procedures include screening for eligibility, study treatment including in-clinic evaluations of fitness and strength, blood collection, at-home zoom exercise sessions, self-administered activity logs, and survey questionnaires. Participation in this research study is expected to last about 8 months. It is expected that about 30 people will take part in this research study. The Stahl Family Charitable Foundation, Pedal 4 Pediatrics, and the Childhood Brain Tumor Foundation are supporting this research study by providing funding for the study. ;
