NCT ID NCT07609082
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This pilot trial will test whether a prehabilitation program (exercise, protein drinks, breathing exercises, and coaching) is feasible for women awaiting ovarian cancer surgery. It compares in-person delivery, remote delivery via a web app, and standard education-only care. The study enrolls 36 women and focuses on whether they can meet exercise goals and which approach they prefer.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Multimodal prehabilitation program (aerobic exercise, protein supplement, breathing exercises, coaching, web app)
What this could lead to
If this works, it could show that prehabilitation before ovarian cancer surgery is practical and helps patients recover better.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study (36 people) testing feasibility, not effectiveness. It may not prove any health benefits or be generalizable.
