Build Stamina Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Build Stamina GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The Build StaMINA (Biobehavioral Self-Management INtervention using physical Activity) is a tailored evidence-based physical activity (PA) program designed to improve endurance, strength, and balance which are all areas of physical function, that adults with acute leukemia (AL) post-induction are known to have diminished capacity. The Build StaMINA program will be tailored to their current Physical Function, per assessment. The detailed PA prescription includes each exercise in the program as well as the frequency, number of repetitions each day and rate of perceived exertion (RPE) for each exercise. The repetitions and RPE are based on the participants' current Physical Function Assessment and will be assigned based on our evidence-based algorithm.
Group II: Attention-Control GroupActive Control1 Intervention
Participants assigned to the attention control group will have a Physical Function Assessment at baseline after informed consent has been provided and prior to randomization. Participants will also be asked to complete questionnaires regarding at baseline, 6-weeks and 3 months. Those in the attention-control group will also receive a newsletter detailing the benefits of participating in regular PA as well as regular phone calls by study team to discuss general health and wellbeing at the same schedule as intervention group.
