Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

458
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...

Treatment Resistant Cancers02:56

Treatment Resistant Cancers

3.4K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine02:50

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

5.1K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Area of Science:

  • Exercise oncology
  • Implementation science
  • Community-based interventions

Background:

  • Preliminary feasibility studies are crucial for trial design.
  • Assessing community-based cancer exercise programs is important.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the feasibility of a fitness testing battery for cancer survivors.
  • To assess implementation processes for community-based cancer exercise programs.

Main Methods:

  • Randomized controlled implementation feasibility trial.
  • Community-based exercise intervention at YMCA locations.
  • Utilized the RE-AIM framework for implementation evaluation.

Main Results:

  • High completion rates for the trial and fitness testing battery.
  • Significant improvements in functional aerobic capacity, strength, and symptoms.
  • Site-specific differences in completion rates and implementation processes.

Conclusions:

  • The fitness testing battery and outcome measures require minor adaptations.
  • Feasibility is supported, but context-specific implementation challenges were identified.
