NCT ID: NCT06046014 Not yet recruiting - Body Image Clinical Trials

Feasibility of Expressive Writing for Body Image Distress and Anxiety Among Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Survivors

Start date: June 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Each year, about 89,500 adolescents and young adults (AYAs; 15-39 years old) are diagnosed with cancer and up to 60% experience body image (BI) distress. BI is largely developed in adolescence and young adulthood and has implications for self-identity and quality of life. Cancer itself and its associated treatments precipitate changes to appearance as well as body sensation and function, all of which can alter BI and lead to increased anxiety. An in-home BI-focused expressive writing (EW) program offers a promising outlet for addressing BI distress and anxiety in a way that eliminates constraints of clinical time and specialist availability. There are no recommended interventions to help AYA cancer survivors cope with BI distress. To address this knowledge gap, the objective of this this pilot randomized-controlled trial is to determine the feasibility of a four-week BI-focused EW intervention to decrease BI distress and anxiety among AYA cancer survivors with the hypothesis that this intervention will reduce BI distress and anxiety.

NCT ID: NCT05314803 Recruiting - Young Adult Cancer Clinical Trials

Yoga for Young Adults Affected by Cancer

Start date: September 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Yoga may enhance physical and psychological outcomes among young adults affected by cancer. Yet, yoga has rarely been studied in this population. We developed and piloted a yoga program, which is now ready for implementation and evaluation. This single-group, mixed-methods project will explore effectiveness and implementation of the yoga program.

NCT ID: NCT04021446 Withdrawn - Body Composition Clinical Trials

A Supervised Clinic-to-Community Exercise Intervention to Improve Cardiometabolic Health in Survivors of AYA Cancer

ASCEND
Start date: September 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The main goal of this clinical trial is to use a novel exercise intervention to improve cardiometabolic and biopsychosocial health outcomes in overweight/obese sedentary survivors of AYA cancers at risk for chronic comorbid conditions. The investigator's hypothesis is that an exercise intervention will improve: cardiometabolic health; body composition; physical fitness and biopsychosocial outcomes when compared to the attention control group.
