Exercise to Enhance Cardiovascular Health Among Black Prostate Cancer Patients With Androgen Deprivation Therapy

Sponsor: Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The purpose of this research is to determine whether a 16-week culturally tailored, technology-based, aerobic and resistance exercise intervention improves cardiovascular risk factors in Black men diagnosed with prostate cancer and are undergoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), and whether it will also improve physical fitness and function, body composition, and outcomes such as quality of life, cancer symptoms, and self-esteem. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) Aerobic and resistance exercise, or 2) Usual care.

Interventions

OTHER

Aerobic and resistance exercise

Perform exercise at home with virtual supervision, including aerobic exercise (e.g.,cycling), which can improve cardiovascular (heart) and lung function, and resistance exercise (e.g., dumbbell lifting and using resistance band. The exercises will be performed three times per week for 16 weeks, and virtually supervised by a professional exercise trainer

OTHER

Usual Care

Maintenance of baseline exercise levels for 16 weeks with an offer to perform the same exercise (aerobic and resistance exercise) program after 16 weeks.
