What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether a supervised exercise program, done alongside chemotherapy or immunotherapy, can improve fitness and recovery in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer. 74 participants will be randomly assigned to either exercise training or usual care. The main goal is to see if exercise boosts peak oxygen uptake before surgery, which is linked to better surgical outcomes.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
supervised exercise training
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that a structured exercise program helps lung cancer patients stay fitter before surgery and recover faster afterward.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study (74 people) that hasn't started yet. Exercise may not improve fitness enough to change surgical outcomes, and results may not apply to all patients.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 74 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Apr 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Apr 2029

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.
