Exercise training before stem cell transplant
Part of Blood & lymphatic clinical trials.
This study tests whether doing high-intensity interval training (short bursts of hard exercise) before a stem cell transplant can help improve your recovery and overall well-being. You'll use a mobile app and get coaching to do the workouts at home, with remote monitoring.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be scheduled to have a stem cell transplant from a donor within 4 to 12 weeks after you join the study.
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You are able to read and write in English (some questionnaires are only available in English).
- You do not have any medical conditions that make exercise unsafe, such as recent heart problems, unstable chest pain, or severe heart failure.
- You are able to exercise without physical limitations that would prevent you from doing intense workouts.

This study tests whether doing resistance (strength) exercises during a stem cell transplant helps you recover better. It may help you regain strength and feel better after the transplant.
This study follows patients who have had a stem cell transplant to see how their heart and blood vessels are doing over time. It helps doctors learn about long-term heart risks after transplant.
This trial tests a pre-transplant exercise and training program to improve heart “reserve,” or how well your heart handles stress, in people at higher heart risk. If you qualify, you may be asked to use a heart-rate tracking app during the program before your stem cell transplant.
This trial studies whether an exercise program (“prehab” before transplant and “rehab” after) can improve outcomes for people age 60+ getting an allogeneic stem cell transplant for blood cancer. It focuses on fitness and recovery, especially for those who are pre-frail or frail.
This study tests whether a guided exercise program, done mostly online, helps adults recover more quickly after a stem cell transplant for a myeloid blood disorder. It looks at physical strength, daily functioning, and overall well-being during the transplant hospital stay and the weeks after.
This trial studies whether a structured exercise program before an autologous (your own cells) stem cell transplant can improve health and fitness in people with multiple myeloma. The goal is to safely prepare your body for transplant, and the study includes fitness testing and ongoing exercise training.
