Completion Date
12/31/2026
Summary
This health services study will assess a multidisciplinary intervention program directed at fatigue mitigation among patients diagnosed with indolent lymphomas. Specifically, 30 subjects with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) and 10 subjects with Follicular Lymphoma (FL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL), Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia, or Cutaneous T Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) will be included.
Detailed Description
All subjects will be assigned to an exercise and dietary intervention program. Patients will engage in two patient-clinician consultations for exercise and nutrition. The individualized exercise plan designed based on the subject's medical history, current exercise habits, and specific needs, will include a mix of aerobic and resistance training. Concurrently, participants will receive nutritional consultations from a specialized oncology dietitian. These sessions will focus on creating a diet plan tailored to each participant's nutritional needs, considering their treatment and overall health. Study participants will complete weekly exercise journals to track adherence to the exercise prescription and complete weekly assessments of their adherence to dietary recommendations on an integer scale ranging from 0-10.
