NCT ID NCT05509751
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a 12-week program of online chair-based exercise and health education, combined with a geriatric assessment, is feasible and helpful for adults aged 65+ with certain cancers and their support persons. The program is delivered remotely, and the study will measure how many people join, stick with it, and find it useful. It is a small, early-stage trial focused on whether the approach works in practice.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- geriatric assessment, online chair-based exercise, and health education
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that a home-based exercise and education program is feasible and helpful for older adults with cancer and their support persons.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early feasibility study with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It focuses on whether the program can be done, not yet on proving it improves health.
