Telehealth Exercise Program Evaluating Fatigue and Physical Function in Rural Cancer Survivors
This study investigates the efficacy of a telehealth exercise program designed specifically for rural cancer survivors with cancer-related fatigue (CRF). Small dried blood samples and measures of physical function will be collected throughout the program. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does the exercise program improve CRF in rural cancer survivors?
- How do CRF, metabolism, and physical function change during the exercise program? Researchers will compare the program to a wait-list control group. This group will complete all study measures without without changing current physical activity before receiving the full exercise program.
Participants will:
- Complete a virtual physical assessment before and after the program.
- Complete brief virtual assessments and collect dried blood samples (at home and mailed in) every two weeks during the program.
- Receive a personalized exercise program including virtual sessions and remote exercise programming with a cancer exercise specialist (after a 12-week wait period in the wait-list control group).
- Optional: Willing participants will visit a study site for a laboratory-based exercise assessment before and after the program.
Possible mechanisms of action are assessed throughout the program (every two weeks) using accessible methods (Aim 2). Fatty acid oxidation is measured via dried blood spots collected remoted and mailed to the primary study site. Physical function is measured via brief telehealth assessments.
Changes in molecular responses to acute exercise and changes in body composition will be explored in a controlled laboratory assessment in participants able and willing to travel to participating sites (N=40, Aim 3). Small blood samples are collected before and after a standardized treadmill exercise session. Body composition is measured non-invasively in a small chamber using air displacement. This laboratory assessment occurs before and after the program (or wait period).

प्रयोगात्मकTelehealth Exercise Program The BfitBwell-TP (Telehealth Program) intervention is designed specifically for rural cancer survivors with cancer-related fatigue (CRF). It is personalized to each participant, addresses known barriers to exercise participation in rural survivors, and incorporates the experience and infrastructure of the established clinical BfitBwell Cancer Exercise Program. BfitBwell-TP is delivered completely via existing and accessible telehealth technologies including: videoconference sessions with a cancer exercise specialist, exercise programming and text communication using a personal training smartphone/internet application, and emailed surveys. CRF is assessed throughout the program with additional telehealth sessions initiated if it does not improve as predicted based on a reference chart developed with BfitBwell data. | Telehealth Exercise Program BfitBwell-TP is a 12-week telehealth exercise intervention. Exercise prescriptions are created, personalized, and delivered by Cancer Exercise Specialists. Exercise content is delivered using a combination of videoconference sessions and a commercial personal training application (accessible via smartphone or internet browser). Patient-reported symptoms (specifically cancer-related fatigue) are assessed every two weeks via emailed surveys. Survey scores are compared to a reference chart of predicted improvements during the program, developed from an established clinical exercise oncology program. Additional videoconference sessions are initiated for participants demonstrating lower than expected symptom improvement, with the goal of adapting the current exercise prescription to improve symptom response. |
कोई हस्तक्षेप नहींWaitlist Control Group This group will be instructed to not change their current physical activity and exercise routines while completing all study assessments (including brief assessments every two weeks). After completing a final assessment following the 12-week wait period, they will receive the full exercise intervention (see Experimental Arm for description). | निर्दिष्ट नहीं |
