Feasibility and Safety of Functional Performance Testing in Patients Undergoing Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

April 15, 2020 updated by: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
The purpose of this study is to see if exercise fitness testing is feasible and safe in persons over 21 years of age who have been diagnosed with a hematological malignancy and are scheduled to undergo a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT). Assessments in this study will look at the capacity of the body before transplantation to see if these measures can help predict how patients do after transplant.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
functional performance testing
This observational study will evaluate the feasibility and safety of functional performance testing in patients undergoing HCT. In addition to standard of care procedures, participants will undergo a CPET with a rest and stress echo, pulmonary function, and patient reported outcome questionnaires within 30 days of HCT.
