Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Change in Physical Function

The Short Physical Performance Battery will be used to assess physical function. Scores range from 0 to 12, with higher scores indicating better physical performance and functional mobility.

Time frame
Pre-treatment (T0), Pre-admission (T1), 3 months post-transplant (T2), 6 months post-transplant (T3), 1 year post-transplant assessment (T4).
2

Change in Physical Function

The World Health Organization Disability Schedule 2.0 will be used to assess any change in health and disability. A 12-item version will be used with each item rated on a 5-point Likert scale Higher scores indicate greater disability ie. minimum: 12 (no disability) and maximum: 60 (complete/extreme disability)

Time frame
Pre-treatment (T0), Pre-admission (T1), 3 months post-transplant (T2), 6 months post-transplant (T3), 1 year post-transplant assessment (T4).

Secondary outcomes

1

Change in Aerobic Fitness

2 minute step test. Number of repetitions completed in 2 minutes will be recorded. A higher score indicates better aerobic endurance and cardiovascular fitness.

Time frame
Pre-treatment (T0), Pre-admission (T1), 3 months post-transplant (T2), 6 months post-transplant (T3), 1 year post-transplant assessment (T4).
2

Change in Muscle Strength

Grip Strength in kg's where higher values indicate greater overall muscle strength

Time frame
Pre-treatment (T0), Pre-admission (T1), 3 months post-transplant (T2), 6 months post-transplant (T3), 1 year post-transplant assessment (T4).
3

Change in Physical Activity Levels

Godin Questionnaire. A a Leisure-Time Exercise Score (LTEQ) will be recorded for each participant. Higher scores indicate greater levels of physical activity.

Time frame
Pre-treatment (T0), Pre-admission (T1), 3 months post-transplant (T2), 6 months post-transplant (T3), 1 year post-transplant assessment (T4).
4

Change in Quality of Life

Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Bone Marrow Transplant. This is a valid and reliable patient reported outcome measure of five dimensions of quality of life in bone marrow transplant patients. A higher FACT-BM scores indicate better health-related quality of life

Time frame
Pre-treatment (T0), Pre-admission (T1), 3 months post-transplant (T2), 6 months post-transplant (T3), 1 year post-transplant assessment (T4).

Other outcomes

1

Qualitative Feedback

Interviews with patients exploring the impact of cancer treatment, including HSCT, on physical function.

Time frame
Pre-treatment (T0), Pre-admission (T1), 3 months post-transplant (T2), 6 months post-transplant (T3), 1 year post-transplant assessment (T4).
