A Randomized Clinical Trial of Web-based Lifestyle Tools and Resources Versus Usual Care Among Men With Prostate Cancer

A randomized controlled trial of a technology-based lifestyle intervention vs. usual care
among men with low-risk prostate cancer to determine the feasibility and acceptability of the
intervention and the effect of the intervention on behavior change related to exercise, diet,
and not smoking.

This is a PI-initiated, randomized, unblinded, clinical trial of a technology-based 3 month
lifestyle intervention vs. usual care among men with low risk prostate cancer. We will
recruit and consent 76 men with prostate cancer at UCSF. The subjects will be asked to
complete questionnaires, 7 days accelerometer measurement, body measurements (weight, waist,
hip, pulse, blood pressure) and collection of blood specimen at baseline and 3 months.
Subjects will be randomized into two arms (Intervention Group and Control Group). The
Intervention Group (N=38) will have access to the lifestyle website and an activity monitor
(e.g., Fitbit), receive text messages, and be provided with individualized lifestyle
recommendations. The Control Group (N=38) will have standard of care and be asked to continue
with their usual lifestyle habits. They will receive access to the lifestyle website and be
provided with individualized lifestyle recommendations at 3 months.

1. clinical stage ≤T3a nonmetastatic prostate cancer within 5 years

2. completion of treatment ≥3 months prior to enrollment, if not on active surveillance
