Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Reducing sedentary behavior during treatment is important to reduce the risk of future health problems in individuals undergoing cancer treatment. Therefore, the goal of this project is with a multicenter randomised controlled design investigate whether a digital self-management program during ongoing neo- or adjuvant cancer treatment for breast, prostate or colon cancer is effective in reducing sedentary lifestyle and improving well-being in the short and long term.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
This project is about investigating the effect of a digital self-management program to reduce sedentary behavior in people with breast, prostate, or colorectal cancer during neo- or adjuvant cancer treatment. The self-management program has been developed with patients and researchers and consists of existing high-quality technology that provides support for setting and following goals. The people who use the self-help program also receive support from a physiotherapist to set goals for reduced sedentary time and get to choose which activities will replace the time spent sedentary.
The goal of the project
The goal of the project is to investigate the effects of a digital self-management program on reduced sedentary and well-being during ongoing cancer treatment, both in the short and long term. In addition, the project will study the health-economic effects, and climate benefits of using the digital self-management program. By focusing on reducing a sedentary lifestyle and replacing it with daily activities and/or physical activity, the health of individuals is expected to be positively affected in the short term through, for example, increased well-being and reduced side effects from cancer treatment, and the long term through a reduced risk of developing complications and new illness related to the cancer treatment, such as cardiovascular disease.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Intervention
Participants receive a digital self-management intervention
Digital self-management program
The program consists of commercially available technologies, e.g. applications including behavour change techniques for reducing sedentary behavior (SB) (i.e. self-monitorization of physical activity, reminders for breaking SB/doing physical activity, and providing feedback on physical activity/breaks from SB) and a webpage containing information and tips (provided in short videos and text) regarding how to reduce SB. The participants will be receive help with setting goals for reducing time spent in sedentary/being active and help with planning for what activities to do to replace time in sedentary. Participants will then have access to the webpage and download the application to their smartphones. Follow-up meetings with the physiotherapist (digital or physical) will be conducted after 2, 8 and 12 weeks after start of intervention.
Control
Control condition. Individuals receive the care as usual provided by the healthcare only.
No interventions assigned to this group
