Exercise and Fitbit Monitoring for Prostate Cancer Patients on ADT
This study is for men with prostate cancer that has spread (metastatic) or come back after treatment (recurrent), and who are receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). ADT can cause side effects like metabolic syndrome and heart problems. This trial is testing if a 16-week exercise program, combined with continuous Fitbit monitoring, can help improve your heart health and manage metabolic syndrome. The main goal is to see how this program affects your 10-year risk of heart disease. You may be able to join if you have prostate adenocarcinoma, have metastatic disease or biochemical recurrence, and are willing to provide consent. The study aims to enroll 200 participants.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study, but the phase is not specified. It plans to enroll 200 male participants.
- What's involved
- You would participate in supervised and self-directed exercise sessions, wear a Fitbit for activity tracking, and complete quality-of-life assessments and questionnaires. The exercise program lasts 16 weeks.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Your heart disease risk will be measured through the study completion, which is an average of one year.

What this trial measures
- Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) 10-year risk scoreThrough the study completion, an average of a year.
The 16-week exercise program would affect this risk score through reduction of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and cholesterol while increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL). · A 0 to 4.9 percent risk is considered low. Eating a healthy diet and exercising will help keep your risk low. Medication is not recommended unless your LDL, or "bad" cholesterol, is greater than or equal to 190. * A 5 to 7.4 percent risk is considered borderline. Use of a statin medication may be recommended if you have certain conditions, or "risk enhancers." These conditions may increase your risk of a heart disease or stroke. Talk with your primary care provider to see if you have any of the risk enhancers in the list below. * A 7.5 to 20 percent risk is considered intermediate. It is recommended that you start with moderate-intensity statin therapy. * A greater than 20 percent risk is considered high. It is recommended that you start with high-intensity statin therapy
