Development of a Web-based Exercise Training Program for Brain Repair and Cognitive Recovery for Paediatric Brain Tumour Survivors in the Community: a Feasibility Study
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 24 Sept 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The study will assess the feasibility of a pilot clinical trial of community-led aerobic exercise training for paediatric brain tumour survivors (PBTS) and the feasibility of a web-based platform to deliver this exercise training. It is hypothesized that 12 weeks of community-led exercise training will be feasible for PBTS and the web-based platform will be feasible to deliver exercise training by community-based instructors.
