Exercise's effect on lung cancer tumors
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial studies how exercise may change the environment around lung cancer tumors. It aims to find out if being active could help treatment work better.

This trial helps people who have finished cancer treatment start a supervised exercise routine to improve their health. It tests whether a structured program with professional guidance is safe and helpful.
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can boost the immune system in people with lung cancer. If you are generally active and able to ride a stationary bike, this trial could help understand how exercise affects your body's defenses.
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.
This study tests whether doing a supervised exercise program before your surgery (and during your pre-surgery cancer treatment) can improve your heart and lung fitness, which may help you recover better after surgery. You will be randomly assigned to either the exercise group or a standard-care group.
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 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.
