Preliminary Why this matters to you Expert discussion

Early or partial results. Treat as a signal, not a conclusion.

AI Summary

This is a clinical trial registration describing a planned micro-randomized trial to optimise the timing and frequency of physical activity promotion messages in older cancer survivors with chronic pain. No results are posted. The study is currently recruiting and remains in planning phase.

What was studied

Interventional, Single Group, Open label, Supportive Care purpose. Breast Cancer, Cervical Cancer, Bladder Cancer, Colorectal Cancer, Endometrial Cancer, Lung Cancer, Prostate Cancer; age from 65 Years. Intervention: Micro-randomized trial study arm. n = 50. 1 site: United States.

Key findings

Safety

This is a registry record with no posted results; no efficacy or safety data are available.

Who this may help

The source did not state who this applies to in practice.

Plain-language summary

This is a trial registration with no posted results; it describes a planned micro-randomized trial of behavioural physical activity promotion in a specific population, designed to optimise timing and frequency of intervention delivery.

Study design

As stated by the source record.

MethodsPrimary outcome measures: ActiGraph accelerometer measured physical activity behaviors (sedentary, light, moderate, vigorous intensity). (assessed at 4 weeks); 11-point box scale to assess pain on a scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). (assessed at 4 weeks)

Caveats

This is a registry record with no posted results; no efficacy or safety data are available.
Age threshold, pain severity inclusion criteria, and detailed eligibility criteria are not specified in the registry summary.
Randomisation method, blinding status, duration of follow-up beyond 4 weeks, and sample size justification are not described.
The registry does not specify how many intervention arms are planned or what the comparator conditions are.

Evidence assessment

Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.

Study design

moderate

Micro-randomized trial design specified; appropriate for optimising intervention timing.

Directness

moderate

Targets older cancer survivors with chronic pain; outcomes include accelerometer-measured activity and pain self-report.

Consistency

insufficient

No prior results available; no comparison to other studies possible.

Risk of bias

insufficient

Registry record does not describe randomisation, blinding, or conduct details.

Sample adequacy

limited

Estimated 50 participants; small sample for a multi-cancer, multi-arm design.

What is missing. This record has no key findings. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.

Source abstract

Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07227077). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Medical College of Wisconsin. Recruitment status: RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 50 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Breast Cancer, Cervical Cancer, Bladder Cancer, Colorectal Cancer, Endometrial Cancer, Lung Cancer, Prostate Cancer. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: Physical Activity Promotion Intervention. Primary outcome measures: ActiGraph accelerometer measured physical activity behaviors (sedentary, light, moderate, vigorous intensity). , 4 weeks; 11-point box scale to assess pain on a scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). , 4 weeks. Brief summary: The purpose of this study is to assess the best time to deliver a message to increase physical activity and how often participants will experience a pain episode in the 24 hours following their receipt of a message to increase physical activity.
