Summary
This pilot study tests whether a personalized home exercise program is practical and helpful for women with advanced ovarian cancer who are receiving chemotherapy before surgery. Twenty-two participants will follow daily exercises and weekly coaching until their operation. The main goal is to see if at least 70% of participants complete the program, not to measure health outcomes directly.

personalized home exercise program
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that a simple exercise program helps women with advanced ovarian cancer feel better and recover faster before surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 22 people, so results may not apply to everyone. It only measures feasibility, not whether exercise actually improves health outcomes.
