A personalized program for frailty in bladder or kidney cancer patients
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a personalized 6-month program to reduce frailty in older patients who are about to have surgery for bladder or kidney cancer. The program includes exercise and support, and aims to help patients stay stronger during and after treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether a thorough “geriatric assessment” (a health check focused on older adults) can help you be better prepared for bladder removal surgery. It may guide supportive care before and around surgery to improve safety and recovery.
This study tests whether a personalized plan for food (nutrition) and safe, adapted exercise can improve care in frail people with advanced digestive cancers. You may be more likely to feel stronger and better supported during first-line cancer treatment.
This trial tests whether a home-based physical activity program using a smartphone app helps people with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer become more active compared to a health education group. It's designed for those who are not very active and want to improve their health.
This study tests whether a home-based exercise program before surgery can help improve physical function in people with bladder or upper tract urothelial cancer. If you are planning to have surgery to remove your bladder or upper urinary tract, you may be able to join.
This study tests whether a smart activity program helps older adults in the hospital who have frailty (feel weak or tired) get stronger and feel better. It focuses on people with kidney problems or on dialysis.
This study tests a program to help people with chronic kidney disease who are starting to feel frail (weak or slow). It uses social activities and gentle exercise to improve well-being and strength.
