Community-Based Physical Activity for Cancer Survivors

This study is looking at a community-based physical activity program for cancer survivors who may not have access to these services. Cancer and its treatments can affect how you feel physically, emotionally, and mentally. Often, community centers don't have staff to offer support like physical therapy or nutrition advice. In this study, researchers are working with the YMCA to provide personalized home-based exercise programs. The goal is to see if this 12-week virtual exercise program is practical and well-received by cancer survivors. You can join if you've had a cancer diagnosis or are a caregiver for someone who has, are over 18, and are not currently undergoing active cancer treatment. The study aims to enroll 200 participants.

Study design
This is an interventional study, meaning participants will receive a specific intervention. It plans to enroll 200 participants.
What's involved
You will participate in virtual exercise classes at least three times a week for 20-60 minutes over 12 weeks. You will also complete questionnaires.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
After the 12-week intervention, patients are followed up at 1 week.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Have had a previous cancer diagnosis OR are a caregiver for a patient who has had a previous cancer diagnosis
Not in active treatment for cancer
Over 18 years of age

Exclusion

Have uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation (AFIB), multiple myeloma, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
Have orthopedic or neuromuscular disorders or arthritis that preclude participation in exercise
Are pregnant or nursing - self reported by participant
Are unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements
Have any condition which in the investigator's opinion deems the subject an unsuitable candidate to participate in this study
  • Proportion of patients referred to the intervention (Feasibility)Up to 12 weeks

    At the provider level, feasibility will be defined as the proportion of patients that were referred to the intervention versus (vs.) the proportion of patients that enrolled in the study. Will estimate the referral rates with 95% confidence intervals obtained from generalized estimating equation (GEE) logistic regression models, accounting for the within provider clustering.

  • Proportion of patients that enrolled in the study (Feasibility)Up to 12 weeks

    At the provider level, feasibility will be defined as the proportion of patients that were referred to the intervention vs. the proportion of patients that enrolled in the study.

  • Retention rate (Feasibility)At the end of the 12-week intervention

    At the patient level, feasibility will be defined as the proportion of patients still on study. Will estimate with 95% confidence intervals obtained from GEE logistic regression models, accounting for the within provider clustering.

  • Adherence rate (Acceptability)At post 12-weeks

    Adherence will be defined as the percentage of patients on study after 12-weeks who complete at least 70% of the intervention videos. Will estimate with 95% confidence intervals obtained from GEE logistic regression models, accounting for the within provider clustering.

  • Patient satisfaction (Acceptability)Up to 12 weeks

    Acceptability will be determined by measuring adherence to the intervention and by measuring patient satisfaction. Patient satisfaction will be determined through pre-post intervention surveys. Will use the appropriate generalized linear model (ex. linear or logistic), as determined by the question type and accounting for the within provider clustering.
