{ "The STELLAR Program: Improving Health for Cancer Survivors", "This study, called the STELLAR Program, is for Northwestern Medicine patients who have had cancer. It aims to improve your health, survival, and quality of life by helping you change behaviors that can increase cancer risk, such as obesity, smoking, and not being physically active. The study will test a program that combines support for physical activity, quitting smoking, and managing weight through telehealth sessions. We want to see how well this program works over 6 months and how many different types of people it can help. To join, you must be over 18, a Northwestern Medicine patient, have had cancer (not skin cancer), and meet at least one of these criteria: you're not very active, have a BMI (body mass index) of 25 or higher, or currently smoke or smoked within the last year. You also need to be able to attend telehealth visits.", "design": "This interventional study plans to enroll 1500 participants. You will be randomly assigned to either the STELLAR program or enhanced usual care (receiving information).", "commitments": "If you are in the STELLAR program, you will set weekly/daily goals for physical activity, smoking, and/or weight, and record your progress daily. You will also complete 16 telehealth sessions with study staff over 12 months.", "compensation": "Not stated in the trial record.", "follow_up": "The effectiveness of the program will be measured at 6 months.", }
