Bringing the gym to the farm: could a tailored home workout beat cancer fatigue?
NCT ID NCT04533165
First seen Jul 13, 2026 · Last updated Jul 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a 12-week home exercise program, guided by telehealth check-ins, can reduce fatigue in cancer survivors living in rural Colorado. Participants follow a personalized plan of aerobic and resistance exercises, with intensity adjusted based on their progress. The goal is to see if this approach can match the fatigue-fighting benefits of supervised in-person programs, which are often unavailable in remote areas.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- exercise program
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this program could offer an effective, accessible way to reduce cancer-related fatigue for survivors living in rural areas who lack access to supervised exercise.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small feasibility study with only 19 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The home-based approach may be less effective than in-person supervision, and adherence could vary.
