Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Although physical activity (PA) is commonly used to manage symptoms and enhance quality of life (QOL) in cancer survivors, relatively little is known regarding the benefits in advanced multiple myeloma (MM). The primary aims of the Physical Activity in Advanced Cancer Treatment (PAACT) intervention were to examine (1) program feasibility and (2) potential impact on patient outcomes. It is hypothesized that an exercise intervention will be feasible and potentially impactful.
