Prehab Prior to Stem Cell Transplantation in Multiple Myeloma

Multiple Myeloma Exercise Prehabilitation for Individuals Awaiting a Stem Cell Transplantation (MOTIVATE): A Randomized Controlled Feasibility Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Oct 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The primary purpose of this study is to see if individuals with Multiple Myeloma are able and interested in taking part in a tailored exercise program while undergoing their chemotherapy prior to a stem cell transplant. We also hope to learn if this type of program, along with a flexible delivery format (in-person and virtual), helps in maintaining or improving physical fitness, muscle mass and strength, and quality of life during chemotherapy.
