NCT ID NCT04914338
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a program where older adults (65+) with blood cancer see a team of healthcare providers can help them stay fit and resilient after a stem cell transplant. The program includes health coaching, quality-of-life assessments, and questionnaires. The main goal is to see if it's practical to run, not yet whether it works.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could help older blood cancer patients recover better after a stem cell transplant, potentially improving their quality of life and independence.
