Brief Summary

This trial studies how well magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) works in detecting heart damage in patients with cancer receiving chemotherapy. Diagnostic procedures, such as MRI, may help doctors predict whether patients will have heart damage caused by chemotherapy in patients with cancer receiving chemotherapy. Exercise Capacity Addendum Brief Summary: This study is designed to demonstrate feasibility of performing the physical activity intervention and the primary outcome measures before, during and six months after initiating Anth-bC for treatment of non- or Hodgkin lymphoma. This study will test the potential for a novel (lifestyle) intervention designed to improve exercise capacity, health-related quality of life and cardiac and cognitive dysfunction. This data will inform the development of the R33 phase of the clinical trial to determine if the physical activity intervention can reduce exercise intolerance in this high-risk population. In addition, cardiac MRI data from individuals within this pilot will be compared to cardiac MRI data from individuals in the parent study that did not undergo either of the two interventional arms of this study.

Study Arms (3)

ADDENDUM: Physical Activity Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will be offered one to two training sessions per week at onsite rehab facilities and 1-2 sessions per week at home consisting of slow 15 minute aerobic warm-up followed by 20 minutes of strength training, 15 minutes of progressive intensity aerobic exercise and 10 minute cool down.

Procedure: Magnetic resonance imagingOther: Physical ActivityDevice: Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET)Other: Questionnaire Administration

ADDENDUM: Healthy Living Instruction Group (Control Arm)

EXPERIMENTAL

Organized various health workshops lasting for 60 minutes to match the number of visits to the rehab centers for participants in Arm 1 with 2 sessions offered per month onsite and remaining sessions offered over the phone for 6 months. .

Procedure: Magnetic resonance imagingOther: Healthy LivingDevice: Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET)Other: Questionnaire Administration

MRI (Diagnostic)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients undergo MRI scans for LV function, T1 myocardial signal, and aortic PWV at baseline, 3 months, and 24 months.
