An interventional study of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) Exercise in Prostate Cancer, sponsored by University of Miami. Recruiting at 1 site in United States. Open to male participants aged 18 Years to 80 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-10-23.
Sponsored by University of Miami · Not applicable, Interventional, and Basic science
The purpose of this research study is to understand how a short session of a home-based bodyweight high-intensity interval training (HIIT) affects steroid hormone levels in men on active surveillance for low-grade prostate cancer.
7,046 studies on the registry are indexed under Prostatic Neoplasms; 1,580 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 50 is below the median of 60 across 5,348 interventional studies indexed under Prostatic Neoplasms.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Participants will complete a single supervised, online high intensity interval training (HIIT) exercise session performed at a moderate-to-high intensity lasting approximately 20 minutes. Saliva samples will be collected immediately prior to exercise, immediately following exercise (0-5 minutes), and 15-20 minutes post-exercise.
Behavioral: High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) Exercise
Participants will complete a single supervised, online high intensity interval training (HIIT) exercise session lasting approximately 20 minutes. The exercise protocol consists of 3 rounds of moderate to high intensity bodyweight exercises, including movements such as hip thrusts, lateral squats, wall pushups, lat pull downs, lunges, and jumping jacks.
Protocol Completion Rate
Protocol Completion Rate is defined as the proportion of enrolled participants who complete both the supervised home-based HIIT exercise session and return all scheduled saliva samples to the laboratory.
Time frame: From enrollment through completion of all study procedures (up to Day 1)
Acceptability of the Exercise and Saliva Collection Protocol
Acceptability will be assessed using a participant-reported questionnaire adapted from the Theoretical Framework of Acceptability (TFA). The questionnaire evaluates acceptability across seven domains: affective attitude, burden, perceived effectiveness, ethicality, intervention coherence, opportunity costs, and self-efficacy. Each domain is assessed using 1-2 items rated on a 5-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree to 5 = strongly agree). Domain scores are averaged, and an overall Acceptability Index score is calculated, with higher scores indicating greater acceptability.
Time frame: Immediately after protocol completion (Day 1)
