Clinical Trial Summary

Exercise in all Chemotherapy (EnACT) is a study to assess safety, feasibility, and acceptability of an exercise program within chemotherapy. This will be a single group study to capture the effects of an exercise intervention on the average chemotherapy patient and the patients compliance to the study.


Clinical Trial Description

Several national and international agencies recommend exercise participation for all persons following a cancer diagnosis. The current evidence suggests that exercise training is safe during primary adjuvant therapy and improves physical function and quality of life outcomes. Moderate exercise has been shown to improve fatigue (extreme tiredness), anxiety, and self-esteem. It also helps heart and blood vessel fitness, muscle strength, and body composition. However, despite guidance on implementing exercise recommendations for cancer patients, exercise counseling is still not standard of care in cancer centers across the U.S. Our goal is to collect data that will assist with translation of the evidence from randomized clinical trials into standard of care. ;
