Breathing exercise study for lung cancer survivors
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special breathing exercise (functional inspiratory muscle training) can help people recover better after lung cancer surgery. If you are between 18 and 80, have completed your lung cancer treatment, and are now in remission, this program may improve your breathing and strength.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old
- You have had surgery for lung cancer (wedge resection, segmentectomy, lobectomy, or bilobectomy)
- Your cancer treatment is finished and you are in remission (cancer is gone or under control) and being followed by your doctor
- You do not have uncontrolled high blood pressure, diabetes, heart failure, or an irregular heart rhythm
- You do not have an active infection right now
- You do not have any bone, joint, nerve, or emotional issue that would make it hard to do exercise tests

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies a low-time, high-intensity interval exercise program in people with non-small cell lung cancer who are stable and in remission after surgery. It may help improve fitness and recovery without requiring long exercise sessions.
This study tests if doing breathing exercises before lung cancer surgery can help you recover better. You will use a smartphone to get instructions and do the exercises at home.
This trial tests if doing exercise before lung cancer surgery can help people with moderate-to-high risk. Participants will exercise for a short period to see if it improves their recovery.
This study tests whether using a mobile app to guide breathing-muscle exercises helps people recover better after lung cancer surgery (lobectomy). It might improve your strength and breathing.
This study tests whether using visual feedback (like watching a screen) during breathing exercises helps lung cancer patients recover better after surgery to remove part of a lung. The goal is to see if this type of guided breathing practice improves how well your lungs work after the operation.
This study looks at breathing exercises for people who have finished treatment for early-stage lung cancer. You'll be asked to give a blood sample at home and do breathing training to see if it helps your recovery.
