The Feasibility of a Physical Activity Intervention for Advanced Multiple Myeloma Patients

6. März 2020 aktualisiert von: Dr. Nicole Culos-Reed

Assessing the Feasibility and Benefits of a Physical Activity Intervention for Advanced Multiple Myeloma Patients

Although physical activity (PA) is commonly used to manage symptoms and enhance quality of life (QOL) in cancer survivors, relatively little is known regarding the benefits in advanced multiple myeloma (MM). The primary aims of the Physical Activity in Advanced Cancer Treatment (PAACT) intervention were to examine (1) program feasibility and (2) potential impact on patient outcomes. It is hypothesized that an exercise intervention will be feasible and potentially impactful.

Studienübersicht

Detaillierte Beschreibung

While the introduction of novel and more effective treatments has seen improved survival in multiple myeloma (MM), the aggressive nature of the disease and these corresponding agents can have a debilitating impact on quality of life (QOL). Exercise can help manage symptoms and enhance QOL in cancer survivors, however relatively little is known regarding the feasibility or benefits of exercise in MM. The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility of a group- and home-based exercise intervention for individuals with advanced MM. In this single arm study, advanced MM patients (DS stage II-III) participated in a 12-week aerobic and resistance training intervention, with the option of palliative care consultation. Participants attended once weekly supervised group exercise classes and received individually tailored home exercise booklets. Validated measures of physical functioning and patient-reported outcomes, including QOL, fatigue, anxiety, depression, and self-compassion were obtained at baseline and 12-weeks (post-intervention). Optional semi-structured interviews were conducted halfway (week 6) and at the end of the intervention (week 12)

Ergebnis Maßnahme
Maßnahmenbeschreibung
Zeitfenster
Change from Baseline Upper Body Muscular Strength (in kilograms) as measured by a grip strength test using a hand dynamometer at 12 weeks.
Zeitfenster: Baseline (week 0) and 12 weeks
Total grip strength in kilograms is recorded as the sum from the best score of two trials recorded for each hand. Differences between baseline and post-intervention assessments are evaluated.
Baseline (week 0) and 12 weeks
Change from Baseline Functional lower body strength (in number of repetitions) as measured by the Chair stand test at 12 weeks.
Zeitfenster: Baseline (week 0) and 12 weeks
Chair stand test records the number of times a participant can stand from a seated position in 30 seconds. Differences between baseline and post-intervention assessments are evaluated.
Baseline (week 0) and 12 weeks
Change from Baseline Lower Body Flexibility (in centimeters) as measured by the Chair Sit and Reach flexibility test at 12 weeks.
Zeitfenster: Baseline (week 0) and 12 weeks
In the Chair Sit and Reach Flexibility test, lower body flexibility is assessed by having the participant sit on the edge of a seat. The participant extends the leg being tested in front of the hip, with the heel on the floor and the ankle dorsiflexed approximately 90 degrees. The participant flexes the untested leg so that the sole of the foot is flat on the floor about 6 to 12 inches to the side of the body's midline. With the extended leg as straight as possible and the hands on top of each other (palms down), the participant slowly bends forward at the hip joint, keeping the spine as straight as possible and the head in normal alignment (not tucked) with the spine. The participant reaches down the extended leg, trying to touch the toes, and holds this position for 2 sec. A ruler is ran parallel to the participant's lower leg. Two practice trials are allowed followed by two test trials.The best measurement is taken.

The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- Multiple Myeloma (FACT-MM) questionnaire is comprised of the 27-item FACT-General (FACT-G) scale, which provides information on physical, social, emotional, and functional well-being domains in conjunction with 14 MM-specific supplementary questions. The combined subscales of physical, functional, and MM specific domains contribute to the Trial Outcome Index (TOI) score (range of 0-112). The questionnaire is rated on a 5-point Likert scale, and components can be combined to create a total score, with increases in scores representing improved quality of life.
