Trial of Exercise Therapy in Familial Adenomatous Polyp (FAP)

Sponsor: University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The purpose of this phase 1a/b trial is to find out what amount of exercise would be best to use for preventing recurrence of colorectal polyps. It involves following one of four different amounts of exercise regimens on a treadmill for 26 weeks. A treadmill will be placed in each study participant's home for the duration of the study. The exercise regimen will be personalized for each participant and monitored remotely by exercise personnel. The in-person study visits occur during the usual standard of care endoscopy exam and during a follow-up exam that is 26 weeks later. Small rectal tissue biopsies, about the size of a grain of rice, will be taken before and after 26 weeks of exercise. The study visits also involve questionnaires, a stool sample, and a blood sample. This study will inform the design of larger, future trials to investigate whether or not recurrence of polyps can be achieved with exercise.

PROCEDURE

Exercise Therapy

Exercise therapy comprising treadmill walking will be administer by exercise physiologists via a study-kit which includes a smart-watch (activity tracker), heart rate monitor, blood pressure cuff, body composition scale, and e-tablet for remotely monitoring your exercise. The trials will test 3 exercise levels (150, 225, and 300 minutes per week), with one de-escalation exercise level of 90 minutes per week if needed.
