Summary:
This clinical trial evaluates a golf recreational exercise program for enhancing
survivorship in underrepresented prostate cancer survivors. Golf is a multimodal
recreational activity that requires participants to utilize all muscle groups to perform
the golf swing, walk over hilly and uneven terrain, maintain balance during putting and
squat-like tasks. Physical activity and exercise are beneficial to physical function,
cognitive function, psychosocial health, and overall quality of life during prostate
cancer survivorship. These aspects of health are impacted by prostate cancer treatment,
especially androgen deprivation therapy. Additionally, supervised, group-based activity
programs facilitate participation in physical activity. Researchers want to examine the
changes in functional abilities, psychosocial health, and quality of life following
participation in in a golf program designed for prostate cancer survivors.
Detailed description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To recruit, screen, and enroll prostate cancer survivors. II. To examine the safety,
feasibility, and adherence, of the 10-week (wk) GREENS program.
III. To analyze the pre-post intervention data and examine the effects (assessed by
Hedges g) of the program on:
IIIa. Physical capacity; IIIb. Psychosocial wellness; IIIc. Health, and; IIId. Cognition.
OUTLINE:
Patients participate in the golf training program composed of group sessions over 1-2
hours with a Professional Golfers' Association of America (PGA) professional two times
per week for ten weeks. Training consists of complimentary/warm up exercises integrated
with pelvic floor muscle training, golf instruction, golf practice, and golf play on a
Par 3 public golf course. Patients also wear an activity tracker and undergo blood sample
collection on the study.
After completion of study intervention, patients are followed up at 6 months.
