NCT ID NCT06919874
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing whether a mobile app that guides users through yoga poses is practical and safe for people with lung cancer who are getting radiation therapy, and for their family caregivers. About 60 patient-caregiver pairs will try the app at home. The goal is to see if people find it easy to use and if it causes any problems, not yet to measure health benefits.
