Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to learn how many lung cancer survivors will agree to a physical activity program. We also want to know if lung cancer survivors benefit from this program. This information will help us to develop our services for lung cancer survivors. Read more about this study

  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: In total, we will recruit and enroll a random sample of 70 lung cancer survivors who are at least one year post thoracic surgical resection and have no evidence of NSCLC or any other cancer at the time of study enrollment and not receiving any adjuvant treatment.

Who may be able to join

  • Diagnosis and treatment at MSKCC of primary NSCLC; and/or pulmonary carcinoid;
  • At least one year post thoracic surgical resection;
  • Have no evidence of NSCLC or any other cancer at the time of study enrollment and not receiving any cancer treatment;
  • Currently sedentary or insufficiently active, defined by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as less than a total of 150 minutes of at least moderate intensity PA per week;
  • Able to complete a six-minute walk test (6MWT);
  • Able to provide informed consent.
  • FOCUS GROUP ONLY:
  • Completed the Physical Activity program offered through this study (08067);

Who cannot join

  • Presence of one of the following medical factors at screening:
  • regular use of an ambulatory aid (cane or walker);
  • resting oxygen saturation less than 88%;
  • inability to walk due to severe arthritis or other musculoskeletal problems;
  • a diagnosis of unstable angina in the previous 6 weeks;
  • a heart attack, angioplasty or heart surgery in the previous 3 months;
Show all 13Show fewer
  • current heart rate <50 or >120 at rest; current uncontrolled hypertension;
  • current significant valvular heart disease or decompensated congestive heart failure and
  • patient reported pain of any origin that would preclude participation in the proposed PA intervention
  • Evidence of significant medical cognitive or psychiatric disturbance sufficient, in the investigator's judgment, to preclude participation in the intervention
  • Self-reporting of greater than 60 minutes of vigorous activity per week or 150 minutes of moderate intensity PA per week.
  • Patient resides at more than two hours travel distance from the Center
  • Insufficient English fluency to complete evaluation tools.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • interview and physical activityBehavioural

    For Arm 1 participants in the Physical Activity intervention condition will be assessed at baseline, and postintervention Follow-up (at 12 weeks post baseline).

  • interview and wait listBehavioural

    Participants in the control condition (Arm 2)will be assessed at baseline and 12 weeks post baseline (Follow-up). At this time, the PA intervention will be offered at no cost to the participants in the control condition. If the waitlist participant chooses to complete the PA intervention after the 12 week waitlist period, program satisfaction will be assessed after study completion.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To evaluate the feasibility (acceptability, adherence, treatment integrity, retention, participant satisfaction) of implementing a physical activity intervention trial among sedentary and insufficiently active lung cancer survivors.

    Measured: conclusion of the study

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Obtain preliminary data on effect of a physical activity intervention on functional ability, health-related QOL, dyspnea, fatigue, balance, strength & self-report physical activity among sedentary and insufficiently active lung cancer survivors

    Measured: conclusion of the study

  2. To obtain preliminary data on factors associated with feasibility using variables from Social Cognitive Theory and assess their relationship with treatment adherence and dropout.

    Measured: conclusion of the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer and Survivor, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To evaluate the feasibility (acceptability, adherence, treatment integrity, retention, participant satisfaction) of implementing a physical activity intervention trial among sedentary and insufficiently active lung cancer survivors. (time frame: conclusion of the study). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Jun 2023.
