  • Objective

    Use an iterative approach to develop a culturally-tailored multilevel remote-based physical activity (PA) intervention among a total of 20 Latinx adolescent and young adult survivors of childhood cancer (AYA survivors), 8-12 whose preferred language is English and 8-12 whose preferred language is Spanish, using the StepByStep intervention as a starting point. (Stage 1) II. Conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the potential efficacy of the culturally-tailored remote-based PA intervention (versus [vs.] Fitbit only) with respect to the primary outcome of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) measured with a research grade accelerometer over 12 weeks among a separate group of 170 Latinx AYA survivors whose preferred language is Spanish or English (n=85 per randomization arm) and who do not meet PA guidelines at baseline. The control group will receive a Fitbit only. (Stage 2)
