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.
The purpose of this study is to test a randomized, controlled diet and physical activity intervention designed to be simple and address barriers to participation in lifestyle intervention among 16 urinary bladder cancer patients. Aim 1 is to test the feasibility and acceptability of a novel, peri-operative lifestyle intervention, "The Boost Box", among bladder cancer patients receiving cystectomy with or without neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. Aim 2 is to measure the feasibility of collecting data on the intervention effects on complication rate, nutritional status, weight loss, and quality of life post-surgery among bladder cancer patients receiving cystectomy ± neoadjuvant therapy. Secondarily, we will determine the magnitude of association between study group and outcomes to inform power calculations in a future, well-powered trial. Participants will: * attend two dietetic consultations at baseline and post-surgical recovery where nutritional status will be evaluated with patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) * complete baseline questionnaires (TCC, FACT-BI-Cys, Short 2012, FAACT, Godin) * receive weekly BOOST boxes * complete pre-surgery weekly BOOST check ins * complete post-surgery weekly BOOST check ins * complete an ASA food recall pre and post-surgery * complete an exercise familiarization consult * record weekly resistance and aerobic exercise performed at home * complete a 6 month follow-up questionnaire * receive compensation Researchers will compare to a Usual Care group to determine differences that could be attributed to the BOOST Box intervention.

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
