研究概览
简要总结
The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility and the validity of the 2-minute walk test (2MWT) and the 10-meter walk test (10MeWT) compared to the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) for subjects with onco-hematological disease.
详细描述
Cancer and its treatments have an impact on the body as a whole. The analysis of the subject's physical capacity is essential to know the basic level of the subject pre-treatment, to evaluate progress following rehabilitation, to set goals to prevent decline in physical capacity or to evaluate changes in physical capacity at different stages of survival. The 6-minute walk test (6MWT) is frequently used in the clinic to assess the physical capacity of the subject in oncology. A variant of the 6MWT exists and has been little studied in an oncological context: the 2-minute walk test (2MWT). The 2MWT is performed in the same way as the 6MWT: the same instructions and the same test procedure. It offers the advantage of being less tiring for the test subjects and saves clinicians time. The 2MWT has been validated in the past for people with COPD or after cardiac surgery. To our knowledge, it has not been validated for cancer patients.
The 10-meter walk test (10MeWT) is frequently used in practice to assess patients' functional capacity. It would be another way to assess the walking ability with a short test.
However, the relationship between the 2MWT, 6MWT and 10MeWT in an oncological context remain unclear.

结局指标
主要结局
Primary endpoint: feasibility of the 2MWT and the 10MeWT
时间窗: through study completion, an average of 1 year
The feasibility of the different tests will be assessed in an oncological setting.
Primary endpoint: criterion validity with the 6MWT
时间窗: through study completion, an average of 1 year
Criterion validity will be assessed by calculating the strength of the correlation between the 2MWT/10MeWT and the 6MWT.
次要结局
- Secondary endpoint: convergent construct validity(through study completion, an average of 1 year)
- Secondary endpoint: criterion validity between 10m walk test and 10m walk test self-tested(through study completion, an average of 1 year)
