Home Exercise Program for Heart Health During Leukemia Transplant
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests whether doing gentle exercise at home can help protect your heart during stem cell transplant treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (a type of blood cancer). You'll use a smartphone app to guide daily workouts designed to be safe and manageable during your treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a new diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia being treated at Fred Hutch
- You are age 18 or older and meet one or more 'high-risk' criteria (age 65+, or a high comorbidity score based on your overall health)
- You can safely walk and exercise at low to moderate intensity, as checked by the study team
- You own a smartphone and can read and write in English
- You do not have severe heart failure, severe anemia, aortic stenosis, or major orthopedic or nerve problems that prevent walking
- You are willing and able to understand and sign a consent form

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether giving extra immune cells (called DLI) before or after a stem cell transplant can help prevent or treat leukemia relapse. These cells come from the same family member who donated your transplant, and the study also asks the donor to do some exercise sessions beforehand.
This study looks at how an exercise program affects fitness and lung function in young people who are survivors of certain conditions (heart transplant, leukemia, or lung disease from prematurity). The goal is to see whether exercise can improve breathing and overall physical function safely.
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 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 study helps people with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by closely monitoring their heart health during chemotherapy. It aims to detect any early heart problems caused by treatment so they can be managed sooner.
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.
