Study Summary

This trial studies the effects of exercise therapy on indicators of prostate cancer in people with low-risk prostate cancer on active surveillance. Participants will be assigned walking on a treadmill or their usual exercise routines. No treatment is provided.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men over 18 with low-risk prostate cancer who are under active surveillance, not very active (exercising less than 150 minutes per week), have a BMI below 40, and pass an exercise safety check. It's not for those on other treatments or programs that affect tumor outcomes, with any history of systemic anticancer therapy or distant metastatic malignancy.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effects of home-based treadmill walking sessions designed by an exercise physiologist against usual exercise routines in managing indicators of prostate cancer. Participants will either follow the assigned walking program or continue their regular exercises to see which has a better impact on prostate health.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves exercise therapy rather than medication, side effects may include typical physical activity-related issues such as muscle soreness, fatigue, joint pain or injury risk. However, these are generally mild and manageable.
