EXCEL: Exercise for Cancer to Enhance Living Well
Recruiting now NCT04478851
Run by University of Calgary · for 18 to 100 · All sexes · accepts healthy volunteers
What this study is about
Project EXCEL will provide community or online exercise programs to rural and remote and under-served cancer survivors, as well as encourage participants to become life-long exercisers. Exercise is an evidence-based self-management strategy that benefits all cancer survivors. However, most cancer survivors who live in remote or rural places don't have adequate opportunities to be involved in exercise programs that are tailored to their needs.
