About this study

Official title: The Role of Aging and Individual Variation in Exercise Training Responsiveness

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effects of aging on markers of physical reserve and exercise-induced adaptations in resilience in older adults who completed a structured exercise program within the last 15 years (Parent trial: STRRIDE-PD; NCT00962962). This feasibility pilot study will enroll up to 26 participants to complete a 6-month aerobic exercise intervention.

Being tested
Low/Mod, High/Mod, High/Vig

What participants receive

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

  • Low/ModBehavioural

    Aerobic exercise at 50% peak oxygen consumption for the number of weekly minutes prescribed in the original STRRIDE trial

  • High/ModBehavioural

    Aerobic exercise at 50% peak oxygen consumption for the number of weekly minutes prescribed in the original STRRIDE trial

  • High/VigBehavioural

    Aerobic exercise at 75% peak oxygen consumption for the number of weekly minutes prescribed in the original STRRIDE trial

What is being measured

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

  1. Insulin Sensitivity

    Insulin sensitivity will be measured with a 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test

    Measured: Baseline, early-intervention (~6 weeks), and post-intervention (~24 weeks)

  2. Cardiorespiratory Fitness

    Cardiorespiratory fitness will be measured with a maximal cardiopulmonary exercise test

    Measured: Baseline, early-intervention (~6 weeks), and post-intervention (~24 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Perceived Global Health

    Self-reported global health will be captured using the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS). The questionnaire will be scored using "response pattern scoring" according to the PROMIS scoring manual in order to calculate the T-score for this outcome measure. The population mean T-score for global health is 50, with a score of 40 considered below average and a score of 60 considered above average.

    Measured: Baseline, early-intervention (~6 weeks), mid-intervention (~12 weeks), and post-intervention (~24 weeks)

  2. Health-Related Quality of Life

    Health-related quality of life will be captured using the SF-36 Health Survey. The survey is scored into eight domains: physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role-emotional, and mental health. Raw scores will be converted into scale scores ranging from 0 to 100, with higher scores representing better health-related quality of life.

    Measured: Baseline, early-intervention (~6 weeks), mid-intervention (~12 weeks), and post-intervention (~24 weeks)

  3. Metabolic Syndrome Z-Score

    The metabolic syndrome z-score (MSSc) is a continuous weighted score of the five metabolic syndrome variables-fasting high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose, waist circumference, and mean arterial blood pressure. A modified z-score will be calculated for each participant using continuous differences between the Adult Treatment Panel (ATP) III guideline values and participant values with normalization to the cohort's standard deviations. To account for variations in ATP III criteria between men and women, the investigators will use sex-specific MSSc equations. A lower MSSc indicates a better outcome.

    Measured: Baseline, early-intervention (~6 weeks), mid-intervention (~12 weeks), and post-intervention (~24 weeks)

  4. Body Composition

    Body composition will be assessed as percent fat mass and percent fat-free mass.

    Measured: Baseline and post-intervention (~24 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Low/Mod, High/Mod and High/Vig in people with Prediabetic State and Cardiovascular Diseases, run by Duke University 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 3 inclusion and 11 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 13 Jul 2026. 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?

Insulin Sensitivity (time frame: Baseline, early-intervention (~6 weeks), and post-intervention (~24 weeks)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 13 Jul 2026.
