NCT ID NCT06976710
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether a virtual hub offering personalized exercise, nutrition, psychology, and peer support before and after colorectal cancer surgery can reduce complications within 30 days. About 564 adults in Australia having curative surgery will be randomly assigned to usual care or the hub. The goal is to see if this extra support leads to fewer complications and better recovery.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Virtual multimodal hub including exercise, nutrition, psychology, and peer support
What this could lead to
If it works, this could reduce complications after colorectal cancer surgery and improve recovery without needing extra drugs or hospital stays.
What could go wrong
This is a single trial with 564 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The intervention is complex and depends on patient engagement, which may limit its real-world impact.
