NCT ID: NCT06309290 Not yet recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Prehabilitation With Resistance-exercise Training for Breast Cancer Neoadjuvant Therapy

PRE-RET
Start date: June 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Breast cancer stands as the foremost cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide, with the highest incidence of any cancer type. The choice of therapeutic interventions hinges upon factors like cancer stage, cell subtype, and tumor size. Consequently, individuals with more aggressive tumors, such as HER+2 and Triple Negative, or larger tumors often undergo neoadjuvant chemotherapy before breast surgery. However, these anticancer treatments come with side effects like cancer-related fatigue, reduced functional capacity, and changes in body composition, notably skeletal muscle atrophy. Skeletal muscle loss correlates with heightened mortality rates, cardiotoxicity, and diminished quality of life, underscoring the need for early therapeutic interventions. One such promising strategy is prehabilitation, which involves resistance-exercise training aimed at bolstering skeletal muscle mass from the outset of the disease, even preceding breast surgery. Resistance-exercise training has shown favorable effects on women undergoing adjuvant therapy or survivors of breast cancer, however, its molecular and clinical effects in women with breast cancer undergoing neoadjuvant therapy are unknown.

Pre-Operative Prehabilitation Program Women With Gynecological Cancer

Start date: January 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the prehabilitation program applied to postmenopausal women diagnosed with gynecological cancer before surgery on postoperative recovery, planned as a randomized study with an experimental design with a pre-test post-test control group.

NCT ID: NCT06046846 Not yet recruiting - Gastric Cancer Clinical Trials

Prehabilitation Via a Mobile Application in Oesophago-gastric Cancer

Start date: November 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The overall aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of a mHealth prehabilitation programme delivered via a mobile app for people with oesophago-gastric cancer by evaluating its user satisfaction and acceptance. The research question asks what is the feasibility of a mHealth prehabilitation programme delivered via a mobile app for patients with oesophago-gastric cancer? The primary aim of this single centred feasibility randomised controlled trial (RCT) is to explore the recruitment, adherence, and compliance of taking part in a mHealth prehabilitation programme delivered for 6 weeks via a mobile app prior to oesophago-gastric surgery. This study will develop a prehabilitation programme to investigate the feasibility and impact of delivering prehabilitation via a mobile app to patients with a diagnosis of oesophago-gastric cancer before surgery.

NCT ID: NCT05965986 Not yet recruiting - Prehabilitation Clinical Trials

Preoperative Rehabilitation and Education Program

PREPS
Start date: September 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Shoulder problems affect many Canadians yearly. While surgery is one of the best treatments for shoulder problems, patients are unaware about shoulder replacement surgeries, the exercises needed after surgery and how to safely recover from the surgery without having another injury. Uncertainties about the surgery and recovery process can further cause post-surgery problems such as: pain, anxiety and re-injury. While some healthcare centers offer an in- class program to educate patients before surgery, some patients face issues with distance or transportation, and cannot regularly meet their doctor to address all their concerns. This project aims to create an online educational program that will teach patients through online videos and educational materials before they go into shoulder replacement surgery. By creating online modules, it can increase the accessibility for home use, and prepare patients on topics such as: their concerns about the surgery and proper exercises they can expect after surgery for a safe recovery. The aim is to study three groups of patients before surgery; 1. a group consisting of an online pre-rehabilitation program 6 weeks before surgery, 2. a group consisting of an online pre-rehabilitation program 6 weeks before surgery + therapist or 3. A group consisting of the current standard of care, which is a WebEx pre-operative education class lead by a physiotherapist and occupational therapist. Researchers will monitor all groups on their recovery before and after surgery. This will provide another alternative to informing patients before surgery and help them to prepare better for surgery. The online modules will contribute to improving the care in Southern Ontario and eventually be used for future care across Canada.

NCT ID: NCT05851534 Not yet recruiting - Surgery Clinical Trials

Preoperative Optimisation of Modifiable Risk Factors in Surgery of the Pancreas

PROMISE-P
Start date: May 15, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this stepped-wedge randomized controlled trial is to investigate whether implementation of a best practice program for preoperative optimisation (prehabilitation program) with a focus on screening, assessment, and intervention of 8 potentially (partly) modifiable risk factors in patients with (suspected) pancreatic cancer will improve outcome. The main questions it will aim to answer are: 1. Does a prehabilitation program improve the time to functional recovery after pancreatic surgery? 2. Does a prehabilitation program lead to a reduction in the Comprehensive Complication Index after pancreatic surgery?

NCT ID: NCT05772819 Not yet recruiting - Surgery Clinical Trials

'Cardiac and Intramuscular Adaptations Following Short-term Exercise Prehabilitation in Unfit Patients Scheduled to Undergo Hepatic- or Pancreatic Surgery'

CIRCULATE
Start date: April 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Surgery remains an important treatment modality in the treatment of hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) malignancies, but the physiological stress caused by surgery is at the same time a challenge for the homeostasis of patients. A patient's preoperative aerobic capacity has been found to have a consistent relation with postoperative outcomes in major abdominal surgery, with low aerobic capacity being associated with a higher risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality. Preoperative exercise prehabilitation programs can effectively increase the ability of patients to cope with surgical-induced allostatic load, by improving aerobic capacity, and functioning of the respiratory, cardiovascular, and/or musculoskeletal systems. However, besides the effect of exercise prehabilitation on physical fitness in terms of improvement of aerobic capacity as measured by the cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET), the exact role of adaptations in cardiac and/or skeletal muscle function contributing to the improvement in aerobic capacity is still unknown. Insight in the physiological adaptations that lead to improvement in aerobic capacity after prehabilitation in patients with low aerobic capacity will enable caregivers to individually optimize the exercise program (e.g. by changing exercise frequency, intensity, duration and type) and better explain the rationale and effectiveness behind the short-term physical exercise training program to patients. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to assess the central (cardiac function) and peripheral (skeletal muscle function) physiological adaptations in response to short-term exercise prehabilitation. Secondary objective is to assess the relationship between immune function and exercise. In this study, unfit patients are asked to undergo additional in-magnet exercise testing to investigate the central and peripheral physiological adaptations in response to exercise prehabilitation.

NCT ID: NCT05576766 Not yet recruiting - Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Pathway in Patients Undergoing Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy

Start date: October 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Prostate cancer ranks second among all malignances in men and has become a significant threat to men's health. Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) has become a standard treatment for prostate cancer. How to improve recovery following RARP surgery is worth investigating. The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathway involves a series of evidence-based procedures. It is aimed to reduce the systemic stress response to surgery and shorten the length of hospital stay. This randomized trial aims to investigate the impact of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Pathway on early outcomes after RARP surgery.

NCT ID: NCT05363150 Not yet recruiting - Cancer Clinical Trials

Feasibility of a Smart Device Application for Home-based Prehabilitation

Start date: June 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

To investigate the feasibility of a home-based exercise training program using a smartphone application in patients planning for cancer surgery, and to determine the effectiveness of this application on functional capacity.

NCT ID: NCT04739787 Not yet recruiting - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

The Effects of Preoperative Physical Activities on Surgeries

Start date: December 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Recommendation is strong on physical activity (PA) in the prehabilitation of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) for various types of surgeries. The evidence is however weak regarding ERAS protocols. Many studies have showed that physical exercise and PA have hypoalgesic effects on healthy individuals and they have better pain tolerance too. Here the investigators study changes in postoperative pain and postoperative nausea and vomiting for various types of surgical patients after performing preoperative PA at moderate or vigorous intensity Vs non-preoperative PA patients.
