This trial looks at whether a “prehabilitation” (guided exercise and fitness preparation) program helps people with non-small cell lung cancer get ready for surgery after starting treatment before surgery. It may help you tolerate treatment and surgery better if you can do the required fitness testing and procedures.
This trial tests whether doing exercise training before lung cancer surgery can help you recover better. It is for people with low fitness levels who live with another adult at home.
This trial tests a smartphone-based rehabilitation program designed to help patients recover lung function after surgery to remove lung cancer. The program guides you through breathing exercises and tracks your progress at home to help you breathe better after surgery.
This study tests whether adding a structured exercise program before surgery affects the immune environment of your lung tumor. It may help strengthen your immune system and improve treatment response.
This study tests a smartphone app that guides breathing exercises and activity after lung cancer surgery. It aims to help your lungs recover faster and improve your ability to breathe and exercise after the operation.
This study tests a personalized exercise program for people with stage II or III non-small cell lung cancer who are about to start cancer treatment before surgery. The goal is to see if exercise can help prepare your body for treatment and recovery.
