ACE-Neuro Trial Summary

This trial is testing the feasibility and effectiveness of an online, tailored exercise program for neuro-oncology patients. The goal is to improve patient outcomes and physical function.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for neuro-oncology patients over 18 who can read and write in English, have internet access, and are able to do mild exercise. It's open to those with primary brain tumors, whether malignant or benign, at any treatment stage.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests an online tailored exercise program for brain tumor patients. Participants will engage in a 12-week program led by a Clinical Exercise Physiologist and complete assessments on their physical function and health outcomes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves light exercise tailored to each participant's abilities, side effects may include typical post-exercise symptoms like muscle soreness or fatigue but should be minimal due to the personalized approach.
