Prehabilitation before surgery for ovarian cancer patients
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a 'prehabilitation' program — exercises and support — for ovarian cancer patients who are getting chemotherapy before surgery. The goal is to see if getting stronger before the operation helps you recover better.
