Official title
Cardio-Oncology Prehabilitation Program to Improve Cardiac Reserve in High-Risk Patients Undergoing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
Overview
To assess the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a Cardio-Oncology Prehabilitation program in patients at high-risk of developing Cardiovascular (CV) events in improving Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and reducing acute CV complications in Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients.
Interventions
- Other Cardio-oncology program
Consented patients will undergo an initial CV evaluation as part of standard of care then participate in an 8-week at-home, personalized exercise intervention followed by an additional CV assessment prior to HSCT (after 8-weeks)
Primary outcome measures
- Feasibility of a cardio-oncology prehabilitation program in high-risk HSCT candidates (Recruitment Rate). [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Feasibility of a cardio-oncology prehabilitation program in high-risk HSCT candidates (retention Rates). [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Feasibility of a cardio-oncology prehabilitation program in high-risk HSCT candidates (Duration of Recruitment). [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Feasibility of a cardio-oncology prehabilitation program in high-risk HSCT candidates (time to implement study protocol). [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Feasibility of a cardio-oncology prehabilitation program in high-risk HSCT candidates (adherence to program- Days). [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Feasibility of a cardio-oncology prehabilitation program in high-risk HSCT candidates (adherence to program- Time). [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Feasibility of a cardio-oncology prehabilitation program in high-risk HSCT candidates (adherence to program- Missing data). [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Feasibility of a cardio-oncology prehabilitation program in high-risk HSCT candidates (overall satisfaction). [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Preliminary effectiveness of an 8-week cardio-oncology prehabilitation on measures of CRF in high-risk HSCT candidates (change in anaerobic threshold). [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Preliminary effectiveness of an 8-week cardio-oncology prehabilitation on measures of CRF in high-risk HSCT candidates (change in VO2peak). [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
Secondary outcome measures (4)
- Symptom assessment scores after an 8-week cardio-oncology prehabilitation program. [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Changes in patient reported quality of life after an 8-week cardio-oncology prehabilitation program [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Difference in biomarkers after an 8-week cardio-oncology prehabilitation program [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
- Change in patient HSCT eligibility after an 8-week cardio-oncology prehabilitation program [Time frame: 8 weeks post enrollment]
