Can a digital Pre-Surgery boost help cancer patients recover faster?
NCT ID NCT07658313
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a digitally supported prehabilitation program is feasible for patients awaiting major surgery for cancers of the pancreas, liver, stomach, or esophagus. The program includes supervised exercise, nutritional counseling, psychological support, and digital tools. About 30-50 participants will be followed to see if they can stick with the program and if it is safe and acceptable.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
digitally supported multimodal prehabilitation (exercise, nutrition counseling, psycho-oncological screening, health literacy support)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could pave the way for larger studies that may show prehabilitation improves recovery after major cancer surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a very small feasibility study (30-50 people) with no control group, so it cannot prove the program works. It only tests if the program is practical and acceptable.
