Fitbit and coaching help seniors beat cancer fatigue

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Patients with metastatic cancer are eligible with physician approval. * Mild-to-moderate physical functional impairment (raw score between 20 and 34 on the 8-item PROMIS Physical Function survey) * Able to speak, read, \& understand English or Spanish * Participating in less than 120 minutes per week of moderate-intensity physical activity * Living independently and capable of walking 3 blocks (approximately 1300 steps or 0.25 mile) without an assistive device (e.g., cane, walker) and without stopping to rest * Own a smartphone or tablet \*OR\* be willing to use a study-provided smartphone capable of running the Fitbit app. Also, access to the internet or a Wi-Fi hotspot at least once per week is required. Smartphones and data plans will be provided to those individuals who are eligible but do not currently own a device capable of running the Fitbit app. * Availability of a family member or friend to be present (for safety) during the remote assessment of physical performance tests * Willingness to be randomized to either study arm and to wear activity trackers Exclusion Criteria: * Adults not able to consent * Severe impairments (in seeing or hearing) or pre-existing medical limitations for engaging in daily light physical activity (e.g., severe orthopedic conditions, pending hip/knee replacement, dementia, oxygen dependent, chronic vertigo) * Paid employment or volunteer position for greater than 20 hours per week (to avoid potential confounding by occupation activity/inactivity) * Currently participating in a program (personal program, e.g., wearing an activity monitor, or structured program, e.g., another study) to decrease sedentary time or increase physical activity * Planning to move out of New Mexico within the next year
