Strides For Life I: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Induction of Positive Affect to Increase Physical Activity in Early Stage Lung Cancer Survivors
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate, among 54 stage early stage lung cancer
patients, whether a behavioral intervention versus an educational Control group results in
improved function at 6-months.
patients, whether a behavioral intervention versus an educational Control group results in
improved function at 6-months.
This is a two arm randomized controlled trial that will evaluate, among 54 stage 1 non-small
cell lung cancer patients, whether induction of positive affect vs. an educational Control
group, results in improved function as assessed by the 6-minute Walk Test. Our primary
outcome will be a within-patient change in the 6-Minute Walk Test at 6 months.
