Strength training during stem cell transplant recovery
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older.
- You are awake and able to communicate in Mandarin or Taiwanese, or can read and write.
- You have a blood cancer such as AML, ALL, Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin lymphoma, multiple myeloma, or MDS.

- Your doctor says you are healthy enough to do strength exercises.
- You are able to do everyday activities with little or no help (ECOG score 0–2).

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.
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 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 tests whether an adapted physical activity (tailored exercise) can help people recover after a donor stem cell transplant for blood cancers. If you’re able to participate, the program may support strength, well-being, and recovery during the transplant process.
This trial tests a prehabilitation program for patients with blood cancer who are scheduled for an allogeneic stem cell transplant. The goal is to help improve your physical and emotional strength before the transplant.
This study tests whether a supervised home-based strength training program can help older cancer survivors improve their daily functioning and quality of life. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three exercise groups.
