About this trial

This protocol is a retrospective study using observational data to conduct a target trial emulation to examine the association of exercise on cancer specific endpoints and other clinical outcomes in cancer survivors.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adult (≥18 years of age) patients with history of primary invasive cancer under surveillance at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK).

Completion of an exercise survey (baseline) as part of MSK Cancer Survivorship Program and completion of a historical survey in the MSK Cancer Survivorship Program 9-15 months (time th) prior reporting non-exercising status [i.e., reporting <10 metabolic equivalent-hours per week (MET-h/week)]. Patients completing an additional exercise survey between th and baseline are excluded.

No evidence of recurrent or metastatic disease in the 15 months prior to the baseline exercise assessment

Completion of all definitive primary adjuvant therapy (e.g., chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy) at least 3 months prior to completion of the historical exercise survey in a MSK Cancer Survivorship Program. Adjuvant hormonal therapy is permitted at any time.

Disqualifiers

None

Trial population

Adult (≥18 years of age) cancer survivors under surveillance at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) between 2011 and 2023.
