FIRST-Sask Study Protocol: A Remote Exercise Oncology Intervention (FIRST-Sask)

2026年5月28日 更新者:Schroder Sattar、University of Saskatchewan

FIRST-Sask Study Protocol: A Randomized Controlled Trial of a Remote Exercise Oncology Intervention

Older adults undergoing cancer treatment experience substantial treatment-related burden and reduced quality of life (QoL). Exercise is an effective supportive care intervention, but access is limited in rural and geographically dispersed settings. Evidence on flexible delivery models that accommodate patient preferences and real-world constraints remains scarce.

This study seeks to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a hybrid exercise program for older adults with cancer in rural settings and to obtain preliminary efficacy estimates to inform a larger trial. This randomized controlled trial tests a 12-week, multimodal exercise intervention co-designed with patient partners. The program uses a hybrid delivery model with options (in-person, remote, or combined formats) based on preference, geography, season, and alignment with routine travel (e.g. clinic visits). Older adults (≥65) with breast, lung, prostate, colorectal, or hematologic cancers are recruited using a multipronged strategy. Assessments at baseline and 12 weeks include cardiovascular endurance, upper and lower limb strength, balance, and QoL. Feasibility and acceptability will be examined via recruitment, retention, adherence, exit surveys and interviews. Exercise prescription will follow FITT principles. Adherence, dose modifications, and fidelity will be monitored using standardized procedures. Analyses will follow an intention-to-treat approach, with between-group and over-time effects estimated using generalized linear and mixed-effects models. This study will inform the development of a scalable exercise rehabilitation model to improve equitable access to supportive care in rural settings.

武器和干预

参与者组/臂
干预/治疗
实验性的:Intervention group
The online exercise sessions will be delivered via Zoom, led by 2 certified exercise trainers. The program will span 12 weeks, with 2 sessions per week. Each session will be 60 min in duration and will include: warm-up (breathing exercise and joint mobility, 5 min); circuit-style training encompassing aerobic, balance, and resistance training (45-50 min), and cool-down. Individual progressions will be titrated based on abilities. Exercise intensity will be monitored using the 10-point Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale. To provide some form of flexibility within this study, participants who would like to occasionally attend some of their sessions in-person will have option to informing the trainers 48 hours in advance to arrange an in-person session.
The 12- week intervention entails 2x weekly synchronous exercise sessions, delivered via Zoom and facilitated by two certified exercise trainers. Each session is 60 min in duration and includes multimodal exercises.
无干预:Control
Participants in the control arm will receive no intervention.

研究衡量的是什么?

主要结果指标

结果测量
措施说明
大体时间
Feasibility (measurement by recruitment rate, adherence rate, retention rate, outcome capture rate)
大体时间:At Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Feasibility of the intervention will be measured using attendance rate (attending ≥50% of sessions), adherence rate (adhering to ≥50% of the prescribed exercises), retention rate (≥50%), and outcome capture (≥80%).
At Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Acceptability of program (measured using survey and open-ended interview)
大体时间:At Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Acceptability will be assessed using the CSQ-8 tool that assesses satisfactory level about the program. It contains 8 items, each item is scored from 1 to 4. Higher scores indicate greater satisfaction. There will also be open-ended questions to share feedback as well as recommendations for improvement for further participants, their perceived benefits about the program regarding quality of life and general well-being, and likelihood to recommend it to other cancer survivors. The optional exit interview with provide participants with opportunity to share in more depth about their experiences, and

次要结果测量

结果测量
措施说明
大体时间
Cardiovascular endurance, measured using the 2-Minute Step Test and reported as the number of steps completed in two minutes.
大体时间:At baseline and at Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Cardiovascular endurance will be assessed using the 2-min Step Test, a validated measure of cardiovascular endurance. For online assessment, participants will be instructed to stand perpendicular to the camera (i.e., with their side and either the left or right leg facing the camera); the number of steps completed by the leg facing the camera during the 2-minute test will be recorded.
At baseline and at Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Upper limb muscle strength, measured using hand grip dynamometry and reported as maximal grip strength (in kilograms)
大体时间:At baseline and at Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Upper limb muscle strength will be measured using hand grip strength test with a Jamar dynamometer, which is considered the gold standard for measuring grip strength.
At baseline and at Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Lower limb muscle strength, measured using the 30-Second Sit-to-Stand Test and reported as the number of full sit-to-stand repetitions completed in 30 seconds.
大体时间:At baseline and at Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Lower limb strength will be measured assessed using 30-second sit-stand.
At baseline and at Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Balance, measured using the Single-Leg Stance Test and reported as the duration a participant can maintain single-leg standing.
大体时间:At baseline and at Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Balance will be assessed using the Single-leg Stance test.

其他结果措施

结果测量
措施说明
大体时间
Health-related quality of life, measured using the 30-item EORTC QLQ-C30 and reported as domain and symptom scores reflecting physical, social, emotional, and cognitive functioning, symptom burden, and overall quality of life.
大体时间:At baseline and at Week 12 (end-of-intervention)
Health-related quality of life will be measured using the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30). The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-item questionnaire that generates scores transformed to a 0-100 scale for functional domains, symptom domains, and global health status/quality of life. Higher scores on the functional and global health status/quality of life scales indicate better functioning and quality of life, whereas higher scores on the symptom scales indicate greater symptom burden and worse outcomes.
