Exercise for advanced non-small cell lung cancer
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can help people with advanced lung cancer feel better and stay stronger during their cancer treatment. It is for patients who are in the early phases of palliative therapy (first or second treatment) and can safely participate in exercise.
