Evaluation of an Exercise Intervention During Intensive Medical Treatment in Pediatric Oncology. (BEPPO)

2026년 9월 8일 업데이트: Miriam Götte, Universität Duisburg-Essen

Evaluation of an Exercise Intervention During Intensive Medical Treatment in Pediatric Oncology (Evaluation BEwegungs- Und sPorttherapeutischer Interventionen Unter Medizinischer Therapie in Der Pädiatrischen Onkologie)

The BEPPO study is a Germany-wide clinical trial investigating whether a structured exercise program can improve physical and mental health in children and adolescents undergoing cancer treatment. Although exercise is known to support recovery and well-being, it is not yet a standard part of pediatric oncology care. The study aims to generate evidence to support the integration of exercise into routine treatment.

A total of 346 patients aged 3 to 18 years are recruited across 13 pediatric oncology centers in Germany. Participants are randomly assigned to either an exercise intervention group or a standard care control group.

Children in the intervention group take part in a 6-month individualized exercise program with 3-5 sessions per week. The program is delivered across different settings, including inpatient hospital care, outpatient treatment, and home-based training supported by telemedicine. This ensures continuous support throughout the course of medical treatment.

In addition to supervised exercise sessions, participants receive four structured counseling sessions. These sessions aim to strengthen motivation, address individual barriers to participation, and support long-term engagement in physical activity. The counseling also helps build a strong therapeutic relationship and promotes adherence to the program.

The exercise intervention is based on established principles of sports science but is individually adapted to each patient's health status, treatment phase, and personal preferences. Each training session follows a structured plan with specific goals, while also considering individual physical and psychological conditions to ensure safety, feasibility, and effectiveness.

The main objective of the BEPPO study is to improve physical performance, particularly leg strength, which is the primary endpoint. Secondary outcomes include endurance, functional mobility, balance, physical activity levels, fatigue, quality of life, mental well-being, frailty, and treatment-related symptoms and side effects.

In addition to clinical effectiveness, the study also evaluates how well the intervention can be implemented in routine healthcare settings. This includes assessing adherence, feasibility, and potential barriers and facilitators for integrating exercise into standard care. A health economic evaluation is also conducted in collaboration with health insurance providers to determine cost implications.

Overall, the BEPPO study aims to provide robust scientific evidence on the benefits and feasibility of structured exercise during pediatric cancer treatment. The long-term goal is to establish exercise as a standard component of supportive care in pediatric oncology, improving both short- and long-term outcomes for patients.

실험적: BEPPO-group

Patients in the BEPPO group participate in 3-5 partially standardized, supervised exercise sessions per week (30 minutes each), aiming for at least 78 sessions during the 6-month intervention period. Sessions are delivered in hospital settings (inpatient ward, outpatient clinic, or day clinic) and online during periods at home.

Exercises are individually adapted to age, health status, treatment phase, and interests.Primary focus are endurance and strength exercises, additionally coordination, flexibility, and balance exercises. Treatment-related side effects are continuously considered. Online sessions are delivered via video platforms; alternatively, individualized home exercise plans are provided.

Additionally, patients and families participate in four family-centered exercise counselling sessions to identify barriers and facilitators to physical activity, define individualized goals, and support long-term adherence through increaseing patients intrinsic motivation.

Exercise sessions:

3-5x/week over 6 months (minimum of 78 sessions in total), duration: 30 minutes, partially-standardised with a primarily focus on strength and endurance exercises, additional components: coordination, flexibility, and balance exercises, supervised by exercise professionals, continuity-of-care achieved through hospital-based (in-patient/out-patient), and home-based online sessions

Exercise counselling:

4x sessions in 12 months, family-centred exercise counselling, primary focus on understanding barriers and facilitators to physical activity and increasing intrinsic motivation for participating in the exercise session

간섭 없음: Control group

Patients in the control group do not receive a standardized exercise intervention but may participate in the existing site-specific exercise-related usual care services offered at their respective study sites.

The availability and extent of these services vary considerably across the 13 participating study sites, ranging from no exercise support to comprehensive hospital-based exercise programs during intensive cancer treatment, depending on local staffing and structural resources.

Existing exercise programs are delivered exclusively within the hospital setting (inpatient ward, outpatient clinic, or day clinic) and are based on local practice rather than a standardized intervention protocol.

Neither online exercise support during periods at home nor structured exercise counselling sessions are part of usual care at any participating study site.

Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) is calculated from waist and hip circumferences. Waist circumference is measured at the narrowest point between the lower costal margin and the iliac crest, and hip circumference is measured at the widest point over the buttocks, using a standardized measuring tape. Both measurements are taken in a standing position. Waist-to-hip ratio is calculated by dividing waist circumference by hip circumference.

Outcome measure: Waist-to-hip ratio (unitless).

Interpretation: Higher values indicate a greater proportion of abdominal fat distribution.
