Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

PROWESS

Arm Description

Participants will complete study procedures as outlined: Wear FitBit watch during the 12-week study period. Group intervention sessions, in-person or virtually. Two, optional follow-up sessions. One-on-one, semi-structured interview with trained study staff to assess participant experience with intervention.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Participant Satisfaction
Assessed by the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-3 (CSQ), a 3-item survey with answers ranging from 1-4, "quite dissatisfied" to "very satisfied."

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in Objective Physical Activity
Collected physical activity via FitBit measure of steps and activity classification.
Change in Self-Reported Exercise
Assessed by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), a 27-item self-reported measure of physical activity.
Change in Participant Quality of Life
Assessed by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Prostate (FACT-P), which consists of five subscales assessing physical, functional, emotional, social wellbeing.
Change in Participant Distress
Assessed by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HADS), a 14-item measure with two separate subscales to evaluate symptoms of anxiety and depression.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The goal of this research study is to conduct an open pilot of a behavioral change intervention called PROstate Cancer Wearables, Exercise, and Structured Supports (PROWESS) for integrating health behavior change tools and to increase exercise, reduce side effects of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), and improve quality of life in Black and Hispanic/Latino men with prostate cancer. The name of the intervention used in this research study is: PROWESS (behavioral change intervention)
Detailed Description
This research study is to test a behavioral change intervention called PROstate Cancer Wearables, Exercise, and Structured Supports (PROWESS) for integrating health behavior change tools with wearable technology, to increase exercise, reduce side effects of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), and improve quality of life in Black and Hispanic/Latino men with prostate cancer on androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Study procedures include screening for eligibility, intervention sessions, questionnaires and surveys, and an exit interview with study staff. Participation in this research study is expected to last for up to four months. The goal and primary outcome of this open pilot study is refinement of the intervention and study procedures to allow for us to conduct a larger feasibility study in the future. It is expected that about 10 people will take part in this research study. This research study is being supported by the MGH Cancer Center
