What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This pilot study tests whether high-intensity interval training (HIIT) before prostate removal surgery can improve recovery and reduce anxiety. Men scheduled for radical prostatectomy will do vigorous exercise for about 60 minutes per week for at least four weeks before their operation. Researchers will measure blood markers and anxiety levels to see if the exercise has beneficial effects.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) exercise
What this could lead to
If effective, HIIT before prostate surgery could become a standard recommendation to improve recovery and reduce anxiety in prostate cancer patients.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The exercise is vigorous and may be challenging for some patients.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Participants

About 20 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start
