Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to assess the best time to deliver a message to increase physical activity and how often participants will experience a pain episode in the 24 hours following their receipt of a message to increase physical activity.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The primary objective of this study is to test a theory-based, micro-randomized trial to determine the optimal state to deliver a message to increase physical activity by determining the probability older cancer survivors will be physically active in the one hour following a messaging prompt. The secondary, exploratory objective is to determine the probability older cancer survivors will experience a pain episode in the 24 hours following their receipt of a message to increase physical activity.

Eligibility criteria is deliberately incomplete to preserve the scientific integrity of the study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Micro-randomized trial study arm

In this one-armed, 4-week trial, participants will receive prompts to report their pain symptoms 4 times throughout the day. Participants may receive up to 4 reminders to move messages throughout the day to promote participants to engage in physical activity. The receipt of messages is randomized each day. Participants will wear a research-grade activity monitor throughout the duration of their participation in the intervention to measure physical activity behaviors.
