This pilot study will test whether a live, supervised exercise program done at home via video is feasible and helpful for World Trade Center responders who have had prostate cancer. Forty participants will be randomly assigned to either the 16-week exercise program or a waitlist. The study aims to see if the program improves physical function, activity levels, and quality of life.

What this could mean

Active substance: remote supervised exercise program
What this could lead to: If successful, this could provide an accessible way to improve physical function and quality of life for WTC responders with prostate cancer.
What could go wrong: This is a small pilot study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The program may not be feasible or acceptable for all participants.
