Cancer-related Fatigue and Its Biological Contributors in Adolescent and Young Adult Brain Tumor Survivors: Effects of a Tele-exercise Intervention
Summary
The goal of this research study is to learn about the effects of the RISE-YA intervention on cancer-related fatigue in young adults who are brain cancer survivors.
Detailed description
Primary Objective: Test the efficacy of RISE-YA to improve CRF Secondary Objectives: 1. Test the efficacy of RISE-YA to improve PA and physical function in fatigued YA brain tumor survivors. 2. Determine A) cross-sectional associations of CRF with oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) and with inflammation, and B) the effect of RISE-YA on OxPhos and on inflammation. Exploratory Objective: Assess the effect of our supervised exercise intervention on patient-reported health-related quality of life, muscle mass development (BMI, skinfold and circumferences \[waist, arm, and calf area\]), patient-reported dietary intake, and exercise adherence and progression.
