RECRUITING

Exercise to Enhance Cardiovascular Health Among Black Prostate Cancer Patients With Androgen Deprivation Therapy

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The purpose of this research is to determine whether a 16-week culturally tailored, technology-based, aerobic and resistance exercise intervention improves cardiovascular risk factors in Black men diagnosed with prostate cancer and are undergoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), and whether it will also improve physical fitness and function, body composition, and outcomes such as quality of life, cancer symptoms, and self-esteem. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) Aerobic and resistance exercise, or 2) Usual care.

  4. * Have been receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) (i.e., luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone \[LHRH\] agonist/antagonist and/or androgen receptor \[AR\] agonist/antagonist) for at least one month with a plan to continue ADT for at least 4 months at the time of recruitment
  5. * Self-identify as Black
  6. * Medically cleared to participate in exercise by their referred physician or a certified clinical exercise physiologist
  7. * Are without medical conditions that could exacerbate with exercise, such as bone disease (excluding bone metastases) at imminent risk of fracture or uncontrolled cardiopulmonary or metabolic diseases
  8. * Speak English and/or Spanish
  9. * Currently participate in less than or equal to 60 minutes of moderate or vigorous structured exercise/week
  10. * Willing to travel to DFCI for necessary data collection
  11. * Ability to communicate and complete written forms in English and/or Spanish
  1. * Are not receiving ADT (i.e., LHRH agonist/antagonist and/or AR agonist/antagonist)
  2. * Pre-existing medical conditions such as uncontrolled cardiopulmonary disease, or metabolic diseases that could exacerbate with exercise
  3. * Are not English or Spanish speaking
  4. * Patients with secondary diagnosis (with the exception of basal cell carcinoma)
  5. * Participate in more than 60 minutes of moderate or vigorous structured exercise/week
  6. * Unable to travel to DFCI for necessary data collection
  7. * May not be able to comply with the safety monitoring requirements of the study in the opinion of the investigator.
