Phase I Randomized Controlled Trial of Functional Resistance Training in Older Cancer Survivors: The ACES Trial (NCT07606313)
ACES: Advancing Capacity to Integrate Exercise Into the Care of Older Cancer Survivors
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The study will assess the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of live, online supervised group functional resistance training in older cancer survivors who may have difficulty with independent functioning. The study design is a three-arm parallel group randomized controlled trial (immediate resistance training, delayed resistance training, stretching placebo) in 150 older cancer survivors. The resistance training program will be compared to two different types of common control groups: a stretching placebo group and a delayed intervention group. By using two control conditions, this study can also inform the design of future randomized trials on the selection of an appropriate control group.
