An Individualized Online Home-Based Exercise Program for Improving Symptoms in Gynecologic Cancer Survivors
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Malignant Female Reproductive System Neoplasm
In brief
This clinical trial tests an individualized online home-based exercise program in gynecologic cancer survivors and its impact on gut microbiome (the bacteria and microorganisms that live in the digestive system) and symptoms such as pain, fatigue, sleep disturbance, depression, and cognitive impairment. These symptoms can significantly reduce the quality of life (QoL) and survival rate in this cancer population. Thus, promoting physical activity among cancer survivors may help mitigate these severe symptoms. Using online platforms such as Zoom can help participants access an individualized exercise program that meets their specific needs to engage in physical activity and decrease their symptom burden. Home-based exercise, by providing self-chosen time and location and low costs, can address some barriers to physical activity for cancer survivors. An individualized online home-based exercise program may be feasible, and may improve symptoms and quality of life in gynecologic cancer survivors.
