Clinical Trial: Effects of Resistance Training on Recovery During Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

U.S., Oct. 15 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07872813) titled 'Effects of Resistance Training on Recovery During Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation' on July 02.

Brief Summary: This study investigates whether a resistance training program can help patients recovering from hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for hematologic malignancies.

HSCT is a vital treatment, but it comes with a high risk of severe complications. These include opportunistic infections caused by low white blood cell counts (neutropenia) and acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), where donor cells attack the patient's body.
