Summary

This study tests whether a 6-month supervised home exercise program is feasible and safe for adult cancer patients. Participants will cycle and do resistance training three times a week at home, with regular supervision from a physiotherapist. The goal is to see if patients can stick with the program and if it improves their physical function and quality of life.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: supervised home-based exercise programme (cycling and resistance training)
What this could lead to: If successful, this could provide a safe, accessible way for cancer patients to improve their physical function and quality of life from home.
What could go wrong: This is a very small feasibility study with only 21 participants and no comparison group, so results may not apply broadly. The program requires significant commitment and may not suit all patients.
