Exercise program for stage II-III lung cancer before surgery
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.

This study tests if adding a structured exercise program can help people with non-small cell lung cancer who are already on immunotherapy. It is for people who are not currently very active and are willing to travel to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute for some visits.
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 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 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 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 studies a low-time, high-intensity interval exercise program in people with non-small cell lung cancer who are stable and in remission after surgery. It may help improve fitness and recovery without requiring long exercise sessions.
