Feasibility of Physical Activity in Older Adults With Haematological Malignancies: ACCES Study

Active, not recruiting

• Conditions: Geriatric; Haematologic Neoplasm

• Registration Number: NCT06102876
• Lead Sponsor: University Hospital, Toulouse

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to implement a simple and unsupervised home-based physical activity (PA) program for cancer patients in 2 oncogeriatric units in Toulouse Hospital (day hospital and week hospital).

Detailed Description

Cancer treatments can cause side effects such as fatigue and reduced muscle function. Studies have shown the benefits of physical activity, including reduced fatigue and improved quality of life. Moreover, PA is often recommended for cancer survivors rather than patients undergoing treatment. It is essential to develop adapted, unsupervised, home-based PA programs to ensure access to PA for all cancer patients, particularly those living in rural areas or who have difficulty accessing healthcare. The PA program CREATE is a simple, unsupervised PA program based on patients' functional capacities. Depending on the patient's functional capacity, one of 7 PA programs will be prescribed by the doctor. The patient must perform the program independently for 6 months. Telephone follow-ups (weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 20, et 24) as well as a monthly in-person follow-up visit will be made to adjust the prescription.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Feasibility of the PA program	6 months	PA program is considered feasible if at least 50% of them complete at least 70% of the prescribed sessions. Adherence is recorded in a logbook (every day), during the usual follow-up at the hospital (every month) and during telephone follow-up (weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, 20, et 24).
