NCT04328038

Brief Summary

The Goal of the study is to identify trait-homogenous groups of cancer patients in regards to their physical activity associated health literacy. Based on these Groups, individualized exercise protocols and educative strategies can be developed which may increase the efficacy of the exercise therapy and increases the likelihood that patient get involved in physical activity.
