Survivorship Care Plan in Promoting Physical Activity in Breast or Colorectal Cancer Survivors in Wisconsin

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Establish the feasibility of enrolling breast and colorectal cancer survivors along with a
co-survivor into a randomized physical activity promotion trial.

II. Determine the short-term effect of an enhanced survivorship care plan (SCP) compared to
the standard SCP on objectively-measured physical activity among survivors and co-survivors.

OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM I (Enhanced SCP): Participants receive an enhanced SCP, comprised of a personalized
document that summarizes treatment and follow up recommendations, including basic physical
activity guidance. Participants also receive a copy of the United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA) Dietary Guidelines for Americans, as well as standardized emails with
wellness tips and information on stress management provided from the American Heart
Association's website on "Healthy Habits" at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks. Specific topics in emails
include "positive self-talk", "daily relaxation breathing techniques", "better sleep", and
"ways to find pleasure". Participants also wear a Fitbit web-integrated physical activity
tracker daily for 12 weeks and receive email feedback specific to each participant based on a
series of factors, including their Fitbit data, Emails may provide encouragement, such as
"keep up the good work", and/or very specific instructions regarding compliance with the
intervention, goals for meeting physical activity goals, potential strategies to
increase/maintain levels of physical activity, etc., and technical or how-to support
including how to use the device and website, or questions about goal-setting.

ARM II (Control): Participants receive a standard SCP, comprised of a personalized document
that summarizes treatment and follow up recommendations, including basic physical activity
guidance. Participants also receive a copy of the USDA Dietary Guidelines for Americans, as
well as standardized emails with wellness tips and information on stress management provided
from the American Heart Association's website on "Healthy Habits" at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks.
Specific topics in emails include "positive self-talk", "daily relaxation breathing
techniques", "better sleep", and "ways to find pleasure".

Inclusion Criteria:

- CRITERIA FOR SURVIVORS:

- Have a diagnosis of stage I-III female breast cancer or colorectal cancer within
the past 5 years; bilateral or multiple primary breast cancers are permitted;
individuals who have had more than one type of cancer (e.g., both breast and
melanoma) are permitted as long as the breast (or colorectal) diagnosis meets the
other criteria and primary treatment for any cancer is not ongoing

- Have completed primary treatment for their cancer; primary treatment will be
defined as having completed all (a) definitive cancer surgery, (b) (neo)adjuvant
chemotherapy, and/or (c) (neo)adjuvant radiation; breast cancer patients still
receiving adjuvant endocrine or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)
targeted therapies are eligible, as would colon cancer patients receiving a
targeted agent; if there is any question whether a patient meets this eligibility
requirement, Dr. Tevaarwerk (co-I, Oncology) will adjudicate

- Are willing to attempt increase in physical activity level

- Have a co-survivor (friend or family member) willing to participate in this
research study

- ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR BOTH SURVIVORS AND CO-SURVIVORS:

- Have high-speed access to the internet at home or work; This could be broadband,
digital subscriber line (DSL), and/or access on a smartphone or tablet via a
wireless provider

- Fluent in English

- Willing and able to attend study visits at the University of Wisconsin (UW) -
Madison

- Co-survivors must be over the age of 18 years

Exclusion Criteria:

- EXCLUSION CRITERIA SPECIFIC TO SURVIVORS:

- Survivors must not have evidence of recurrent or metastatic disease

- Survivors must not have previously received an SCP or are unwilling to receive
one

- Survivors must not be performing >= 100 minute (min)/week of moderate-vigorous
physical activity

- EXCLUSION CRITERIA FOR BOTH SURVIVORS AND CO-SURVIVORS:

- Conditions that would interfere with the safety of moderate-to-vigorous intensity
physical activity; participants will be screened for safety using the validated
Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q)

- Any physical or mental health condition that would interfere with full
participation in the study, including individuals who are unable to read consent
materials or appear to lack the capacity to consent

- Any individual considered to be that of a "vulnerable group", including pregnant
women and prisoners
