Exercise to boost immunity during lung cancer immunotherapy
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a supervised exercise program can help improve immune activity and treatment outcomes for people with non-small cell lung cancer who are already on immunotherapy. It is designed for people who are not currently very active.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have non-small cell lung cancer.
- You have been on immunotherapy for at least one month and plan to continue it for at least 24 more weeks.
- You are able to do light physical activity and daily tasks (ECOG score 0-2).
- You are not already doing 150 minutes or more of moderate-to-vigorous aerobic exercise each week.
- You do not have any unstable medical conditions that would make exercise unsafe (such as recent heart attack, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or severe lung disease).
