Phase I Randomized Controlled Trial of Functional Resistance Training in Older Cancer Survivors: The ACES Trial (ACES)

21. Mai 2026 aktualisiert von: Kerri Winters, OHSU Knight Cancer Institute

ACES: Advancing Capacity to Integrate Exercise Into the Care of Older Cancer Survivors

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.

Studienübersicht

Detaillierte Beschreibung

This study is designed to begin addressing the current gap in evidence-based exercise guidelines for older cancer survivors, many of whom are at risk for losing their functional independence. This study is a three-arm parallel group randomized feasibility trial of 16 weeks of live, online supervised group functional resistance training in older (age 65+) cancer survivors (stages I - IV, including hematological malignancies) with or at risk for a functional limitation (n=150). Participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of three study arms (immediate progressive functional resistance training (PFRT) intervention, stretching placebo; or, delayed PFRT), stratified by disease stage (metastatic vs non-metastatic). For both the immediate PFRT arm and the stretching placebo, participants will attend three 45-minute live, online supervised group sessions per week for 16 weeks. The immediate PFRT arm progresses from low to moderate intensity over 16 weeks based on participant tolerance. The stretching arm will perform stretches seated in a chair and will emphasize whole body range of motion and relaxation. The delayed PFRT arm will receive educational information about healthy lifestyle behaviors and monthly check-in calls over the first 16 weeks, then will follow the same exercise protocol as the immediate PFRT arm for an additional 16 weeks, during which feasibility outcomes will be collected. All participants will undergo two assessments (baseline and post-intervention at 16 weeks), consisting of surveys and performance assessments. The primary objective is to evaluate acceptability, tolerability, and safety of live, online supervised group functional resistance training sessions, as assessed by loss-to-follow-up, permanent discontinuation (i.e., study withdrawal), attendance to exercise sessions, treatment interruption, exercise dose modification, pre-treatment dose modification, tolerability (i.e., relative dose intensity), and prevalence and attribution status of adverse events. The secondary objective is to assess preliminary effects of the intervention on physical and mental health outcomes, including objectively measured physical function (Timed Up and Go, Physical Performance Battery), patient-reported symptoms and health related quality of life (Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) FACIT-Fatigue, Sleep Disturbance, Depression, Physical Function, Pain Intensity, Cognition, Anxiety; EuroQoL-5 Dimensions, European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer QoL Questionnaire-Core 30), functional independence and disability (Nottingham Extended Activities of Daily Living, Late-Life Function and Disability Instrument), life-space mobility (Life Space Assessment), cognitive screening (Montreal Cognitive Assessment), frailty indicators (Chair Stand Test, 4-Meter Walk Test, self-reported physical activity and fatigue, and unintentional weight loss), and physical activity behaviors (Community Healthy Activities Model Program for Seniors).

Waffen und Interventionen

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Experimental: Arm I (IMMEDIATE functional resistance training program)
Participants join a live, online supervised group functional resistance training session, three times per week, over 45 minutes, for 16 weeks. Participants will receive exercise equipment delivered to their home and perform functional exercises that correspond to movement patterns used in everyday activities (Chair Stand, Lateral walk, Step-up, Heel-toe Raise, Plank, Push-up, 1-arm row with chair, single-arm Bicep Curl, and single-arm Tricep Extension). The 16-week program is a progressive, low-to-moderate intensity training program with a planned progression that increases the volume of training (intensity and duration (sets and reps)) gradually over time, beginning with a low volume of training. Exercise dose can be modified per the participants' tolerance to each individual exercise, and participants will be monitored throughout the trial for this purpose. Caregivers may be present for participants that require additional assistance.
Participants attend live, online supervised group functional resistance training sessions of low-to-moderate intensity exercises, three times per week, 45 minutes per session for 16 weeks.

Placebo-Komparator: Arm II (IMMEDIATE stretching program)
Participants join a live, online supervised group stretching and relaxation training session for 45 minutes, three times per week, for 16 weeks. During the stretching class, participants will perform a series of whole-body flexibility and mobility exercises with a final 15-minute relaxation period (i.e., progressive neuromuscular relaxation, focused breathing). Stretching exercises will be performed according to the ACSM guidelines for flexibility exercise, and from a seated position in order to minimize weight-bearing forces that might increase muscle strength or mass, and to better accommodate participants who may be unable to get down to and up from the floor.
Participants attend live, online supervised group stretching and relaxation training sessions three times per week, 45 minutes per session for 16 weeks.

Sonstiges: Arm III (DELAYED functional resistance training program)
Participants do not participate in a group exercise class for 16 weeks and will instead be provided with basic educational information about healthy lifestyle behaviors, and monthly check-in calls from study staff. After 16 weeks, they will be invited to participate in the same 16-week functional resistance training program as Arm I.

Frailty
Zeitfenster: Baseline, 16 weeks

Self-report and physical testing (five individual assessments) that each represent a component of the Frailty Phenotype. Each assessment either does or does not meet the threshold for frailty (Yes = 1, No = 0) and these are summed to determine the total frailty score (> 3 = frail, 1-2 = pre-frail, 0 = robust). Below is each component, the assessment used, and the threshold that determines the presence of frailty:

  1. Weakness (Chair Stand Test, described above in the PPB); >12 seconds.
  2. Slowness (4-Meter Walk Test, described above in the PPB); walking four meters at < 1 meter/second.
  3. Low Activity (self-reported CHAMPS, described below); < 270 kcal/week (female) and < 383 kcal/week (male).
  4. Exhaustion (self-reported fatigue, details described below in the SF-36 Vitality Scale); scores < 40 (normed).
  5. Shrinking (self-reported unintentional weight loss, measured in pounds); >10 pounds lost unintentionally over the prior year.
