NCT ID NCT07159815
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares a 12-week digital home-based resistance exercise program to a supervised on-site program for cancer survivors who finished treatment up to 5 years ago. The main goal is to see which approach leads to better exercise adherence. Researchers will also measure effects on physical function, mental health, and metabolism. The trial includes 160 participants living near exercise locations in Norway.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that digital home-based exercise is as effective as supervised sessions, making rehabilitation more accessible for cancer survivors.
