Exercise after radiation for bone metastases
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program helps people with cancer that spread to their bones feel stronger and move better after radiation treatment. It is designed for people who can walk independently and have stable bones.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older
- You can walk on your own or with a cane/walker
- You have had radiation for a painful bone tumor that spread from another cancer
- You do not have active spinal cord compression or unstable bones in your spine or limbs
- You are expected to live at least 6 more months

This trial tests whether giving radiation therapy to bones that have cancer spread—but are not yet causing pain or emergencies—can prevent future problems like fractures or nerve damage. It is for people with solid tumors and bone metastases that are at intermediate risk.
This trial tests whether giving radiation therapy early to high-risk but pain-free or nearly pain-free bone metastases can prevent future problems, compared to waiting and monitoring them. It is for people whose cancer has spread to multiple bones and who have certain risky features in those spots.
This trial tests a higher dose of radiation (a boost) to painful spots in the spine where cancer has spread. The goal is to see if it can better relieve pain and improve function.
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can help women with stage IV (metastatic) breast cancer—cancer that has spread beyond the breast—feel better and maintain strength during cancer treatment. Researchers will monitor your fitness, quality of life, and how you tolerate the exercise.
This study tests whether patients with early-stage lung cancer can safely do exercise training before receiving radiation therapy. The goal is to see if exercising beforehand helps patients stay stronger and recover better.
This trial tests whether adding a structured exercise program during radiation and chemotherapy helps people with locally advanced lung cancer. It aims to improve physical function and quality of life.
