Can exercise together ease the burden of brain tumors?

NCT ID NCT07278440

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This pilot trial tests whether a supervised, group exercise program called Exercise Together is safe and feasible for people with primary brain tumors and their caregivers. The program uses resistance training to strengthen muscles used in daily activities and is designed to foster teamwork. Researchers will enroll 36 patient-caregiver pairs to see if they can stick with the program and if it improves their mental and physical health.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a safe, effective way to improve daily functioning and reduce distress for brain tumor patients and their caregivers.

What could go wrong

This is a very small pilot study (36 people) testing feasibility first, not effectiveness. It may not show clear benefits or be too demanding for participants.
