What this study is about

This early phase I trial studies how well a behavioral weight loss intervention consisting of a smartphone application and coaching works for the promotion of weight loss in adolescents and young adults after a stem cell transplant. This study may help researchers learn more about how adolescents and young adults can lose weight and develop healthy eating habits.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.

Primary outcomes

Change in body mass index (BMI) statusBaseline up to 12 months

The main outcomes measures will be height (meters), weight (kg), and BMI (kg/m\^2). Height will be measured to assess consistency in height measurements. Weight will be measured to assess trends in weight over the time span of the intervention. BMI will be measured as a product of weight and height to obtain an appropriate metric that accounts for these measures, and is the standard measure to assess weight progression in weight intervention studies.
