First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This early-phase study tests whether 30 minutes of moderate exercise (like cycling or walking) right before standard immunotherapy can improve how well the treatment works against certain skin cancers. About 22 adults with melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, or Merkel cell carcinoma will take part. The main goal is to see if this routine is practical and whether it changes tumor-related markers in the body.
