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.
