Remote workouts aim to restore strength in cancer survivors
NCT ID NCT07439484
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a personalized, supervised exercise program done at home can improve physical function in people who have finished treatment for gastroesophageal cancer. About 20 survivors will receive tailored aerobic and resistance exercises via video calls. The goal is to see if this approach is practical and helps reduce fatigue and disability.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adults ≥ 18 years old at the start of study treatment * Diagnosis of early-stage (Stage I, II, III) esophageal, gastroesophageal junction, or gastric cancer. Histology can be adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, or poorly differentiated carcinoma * Treated with at least one systemic therapy (chemotherapy or immunotherapy) and within 12 months of completing curative intent gastroesophageal cancer (GEC) treatment * Have evidence of physical function impairment, defined as a SPPB score of \< 12) at baseline * Ability to understand English and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with stage I disease who underwent endoscopic resection or surgery alone without perioperative systemic therapy * Patients with stage IV disease or unresectable locally advanced disease taking a palliative treatment approach without a clearly defined end of treatment * Patients currently receiving ongoing systemic therapy for GEC or another malignancy * Patients who are unable to provide informed consent * Any other condition or pre-existing co-morbidity that would, in the Investigator's judgment, contraindicate the participation in the study due to safety concerns with study procedures * Currently participating in another exercise intervention research study seeking to improve functional status, alleviate frailty, muscle strength, exhaustion/fatigue, or cognitive function
