Study Summary

This application proposes a prospective, single arm feasibility clinical trial of a 12-week period of combined endurance and resistance training in survivors of childhood cancer who were treated with doxorubicin and/or daunorubicin and have impaired cardiac function. Baseline and post intervention imaging, laboratory, and neuropsychological evaluations will be used to determine the effects of the intervention on body composition, serum lipid profile, exercise tolerance, and neurocognitive functioning. Participants will be called weekly to monitor compliance with the intervention. Incentives will be given at intervals during the trial to optimize compliance with the intervention.
