Oncologists shared about new trial in JAMA Oncology:
Jess Scott, Exercise oncology researcher at MSK Cancer Center, shared on X:
“What is the optimal exercise dose in prostate cancer? Team MSK Cancer Center used a digitized, decentralized platform to test 90-450 mins/wk and found ALL doses were feasible, but 225-375 mins/wk associated with tumor activity.
This was a phase 1a nonrandomized trial to identify recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). All study procedures/training conducted remotely in patients’ homes. Based on feasibility-tumor activity ratio, 225 mins/wk selected as RP2D”
