COG ALTE1631 - A Randomized Web-based Physical Activity Intervention among Children and Adolescents with Cancer

Recruiting

Regular participation in physical activity helps maintain a healthy weight, improves energy levels and overall health. Children and teenagers who have received treatment for cancer are often less active, may gain weight and have more health problems as compared to children and teenagers who have not received treatment for cancer. This study looks at physical activity and its effect on your health. This study will use a variety of interventions to see if they affect how active you are over time.
