Summary

"This trial will test if Complement Theory's exercise coaching and digital app can help reduce the cost of care for cancer survivors over 18 months."

Who is the study for?
This trial is for cancer survivors aged 21-64 who have had breast, prostate, colorectal, lung or other cancers at any stage from 1 to 4. Participants must have completed some form of cancer treatment in the past year, own a smartphone or tablet and allow access to their digital health records from the last year.
What is being tested?
The study compares two approaches: one group receives Complement Theory's Live 1:1 Exercise Coaching with a personalized digital app; another gets just the app with lifestyle modification advice. It's an 18-month test to see if these methods can lower healthcare costs for cancer survivors.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves exercise coaching and digital applications rather than medication, typical drug side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience general discomforts related to physical activity such as muscle soreness.
