About this study

Official title: Effect of the Physical Exercise Training Using Telerehabilitation Among Lymphoma Patients: A Pilot Study

This study aims to examine the feasibility and effect of a home-based short-term telerehabilitation exercise intervention using heart rate monitor and internet platform in patients with lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

Fifteen lymphoma cancer patients post-treatment (except adjuvant treatment) will be enrolled in the study. Cardiorespiratory fitness (peak oxygen consumption), adverse events, body composition and adherence to exercise prescription will be evaluated at baseline, 12-week, and year after enrollment.

Being tested
Telerehablitation using heart rate monitor
Medical subject headings
Lymphoma

What participants receive

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

  • Telerehablitation using heart rate monitorDevice

    Eligible participants will undergo 12 weeks of physical exercise using a heart rate monitor and internet platform at home. The participants will regularly (minimum once per week) upload the exercise data from the heart rate monitor into the internet platform. An exercise telerehabilitation session consists of the warm-up phase, aerobic phase (30 - 50 minutes gradually increasing exercise duration; heart rate zone based on baseline cardiopulmonary exercise test) and cool-down phase. The exercise training period is set to 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Study participants will receive user guides developed by research team with detailed instructions regarding equipment set-up, training protocol, and contact information. Also, participants will receive weekly phone calls from week 0 to week 12 to monitor adverse events, encourage compliance and adherence to the study protocol, address any subject questions or concerns, and collect information regarding participants' current symptomatology.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Home-based telerehabilitation exerciseExperimentalExercise training is conducted in the patient's home conditions using modern technology to transfer medical data remotely - the participants receive a heart rate monitor and sensor. To know what to do and how to exercise, the first (1-2) exercise training sessions will be controlled by the physiotherapist in a rehabilitation clinic in the hospital, who creates individual exercise training for each patient. The patient's training data will be downloaded and updated regularly via the internet platform and clinicians will evaluate these results and provide patients with telephone feedback.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF)

    Peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) during the cardiopulmonary exercise test

    Measured: Change from baseline to 12 weeks and 1-year

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Body composition (Total muscle mass in kilograms)

    Total muscle mass is the amount of muscle in body, including skeletal muscles, smooth muscles, and cardiac muscles. Total muscle mass will be measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis.

    Measured: Change from baseline to 12 weeks and 1-year

  2. Body composition (Body fat mass in kilograms)

    Body fat mass is the actual weight of fat in body. Body fat mass will be measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis.

    Measured: Change from baseline to 12 weeks and 1-year

  3. Body composition (Body weight in kilograms)

    Body weight is the measurement of weight without items located on the person. Body weight will be measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis.

    Measured: Change from baseline to 12 weeks and 1-year

  4. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events assessed by 5 grade scale

    Participants will be encouraged to use the contact details for reporting the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events at any time throughout the study period. The type, incidence, and severity of adverse events by scale (Grade 1: Mild, asymptomatic or mild symptoms; Grade 2: Moderate, minimal; Grade 3: Severe or medically significant; Grade 4: Life-threatening consequences; and Grade 5: Death) will be noted

    Measured: Data will be recorded continuously from the baseline to 12 weeks

  5. Exercise adherence

    Exercise adherence is defined as number of exercise sessions attended of a possible 36 offered by the exercise intervention program. Exercise adherence will be determined by participant exercise web datasheet review at 12 weeks.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  6. Exercise compliance

    Number of participants who attend atleast 70% of prescribed exercise sessions measured by exercise datasheet at 12 weeks. (70% of prescribed exercise sessions = 25 exercise sessions in 12 weeks)

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Telerehablitation using heart rate monitor in people with Lymphoma and Rehabilitation, run by Brno University Hospital at 1 site in Czechia.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 20 Jul 2022. 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 Czechia. 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?

Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) (time frame: Change from baseline to 12 weeks and 1-year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04822389, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 20 Jul 2022.
