About this study

In plain language

This study tests a personalized support program to help reduce cancer-related tiredness. It is for adults with slow-growing lymphoma or certain related cancers who have significant tiredness.

This health services study will assess a multidisciplinary intervention program directed at fatigue mitigation among patients diagnosed with indolent lymphomas. Specifically, 30 subjects with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) and 10 subjects with Follicular Lymphoma (FL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL), Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia, or Cutaneous T Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) will be included.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.

Eligibility

Who can join

  • Be age 18 or older.
  • Sign a form agreeing to join the study and allow the sharing of personal health information.
  • Be willing and able to follow study steps, as judged by the study doctor.
  • Have a confirmed diagnosis of slow-growing lymphoma, Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia (a blood cancer), or cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (a cancer affecting the skin).
  • Have significant tiredness, with a score above 50 on the PROMIS Fatigue survey.

Who can't join

  • Have another cancer at the same time.
  • Have memory or thinking problems that prevent understanding study tests or activities, with a Mini-Cog test score of 0–2 out of 5.
  • Have a serious or unstable illness that makes exercise unsafe, as judged by your doctor. Examples include an unstable heartbeat or very low red blood cells or platelets, which help blood clot.
  • Be unable to eat by mouth because of trouble swallowing or another reason, which could interfere with the study’s nutrition program.

Official eligibility criteria

In order to participate in this study a subject must meet all of the eligibility criteria outlined below. Inclusion Criteria: * Written informed consent was obtained to participate in the study and HIPAA authorization for the release of personal health information. * Subjects are willing and able to comply with study procedures based on the judgment of the investigator. * Age ≥ 18 years at the time of consent. * Confirmed diagnosis of indolent lymphoma, Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia, or Cutaneous T Cell Lymphoma. * Significant symptoms of fatigue, as defined by PROMIS Fatigue score \>50. Exclusion Criteria: * Other co-existing malignancies. * Significant cognitive impairment as defined by Mini-Cog score 0-2 (out of 5) that would prevent understanding of assessments or interventions. * Unstable or serious illness (e.g., unstable cardiac arrhythmia, severe anemia/thrombocytopenia) that would prevent safe participation in an exercise regimen, per the discretion of the treating physician. * Individuals who are not able to consume an oral diet, due to swallowing difficulties or other reasons, as this might interfere with the nutritional intervention
