PREPARE-ABC is a pragmatic multicentre randomised controlled trial including an internal pilot designed to assess the clinical and cost-effectiveness of pre- and postoperative exercise in relation to short- and longer-term postoperative recovery outcomes in colorectal cancer patients undergoing surgical resection. Here, we report on internal pilot phase data for the first 200 patients randomised to the trial, which included prespecified stop-go criteria used to inform the decision to progress to the fully powered trial by the funder.
