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.
