Summary

This study tested a telephone-based collaborative care program for 516 people with stage III or IV cancer. The program included regular check-ins, personalized exercise plans, and help managing treatment side effects. The goal was to see if it could improve mobility, reduce pain, and boost quality of life over six months.

telephone-based collaborative care program
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could offer a practical way to help advanced cancer patients stay mobile and manage pain better at home.
