About this study

In plain language

This study tests the best time to send messages that encourage older cancer survivors with long-term pain to be more active. It also tracks how often they have pain in the 24 hours after getting a message.

The purpose of this study is to assess the best time to deliver a message to increase physical activity and how often participants will experience a pain episode in the 24 hours following their receipt of a message to increase physical activity.

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