GET FIT Together: Testing a Socially Enhanced Exercise Program in Older Men With Prostate Cancer
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Prostate Carcinoma
In brief
This clinical trial tests the impact of different levels of social support on the benefits of exercise in older men with prostate cancer. This trial compares a socially-enhanced supervised group exercise program to a supervised group exercise program with no social enhancement, and an unsupervised home-based program on cancer loneliness, social isolation, mental and physical health in older prostate cancer survivors. All study arms exercise for 6 months and outcomes are measured at baseline, 3 and 6 months. The primary outcome is cancer loneliness with secondary outcomes of mental and physical health.
