Strive Cardio for Endometrial Cancer Survivors

The Effect of Combined Aerobic and Muscle Strengthening Exercises on Structural and Functional Cardiovascular Adaptations in Endometrial Cancer Survivors

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 20 Nov 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

STRIVE Cardio is a 12-week exercise intervention study with the goal to improve functional fitness and cardiovascular health for women who have completed treatment for non-metastatic endometrial cancer within the last five years and are currently in remission. Measures will include a functional fitness test, carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity, brachial artery flow mediated dilation, and a blood draw. Participants will be provided resistance bands, a dumbbell, and a Fitbit to keep. Participants will be compensated $50 for each of their two in-person visits.
