Brief Title: Adjuvant High-intensity Interval Training During Chemotherapy in Metastatic Prostate Cancer Patients
Official Title: Pilot Study of a Randomized Chemo-periodized Adjuvant High-Intensity Interval Training Intervention to Improve Chemotherapy Tolerance in Men With Metastatic Prostate Cancer
Study ID: NCT05156372
Brief Summary: This study aims to examine the use of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and resistance training on docetaxel chemotherapy tolerability and toxicity in metastatic prostate cancer.
Detailed Description: Exercise has been shown to decrease tumor progression and mitigate treatment-related side effects, such as fatigue, while increasing physical fitness. In this study, investigators will test the effects of a high intensity interval training and resistance exercise program on how patients with metastatic prostate cancer tolerate docetaxel chemotherapy. Participants assigned to the exercise intervention will be asked to meet with a personal trainer 2-3 times per week for supervised exercise sessions. All participants will be asked to complete electronic questionnaires during their chemotherapy sessions that ask about their physical and mental wellbeing.
