Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study will evaluate whether a remotely delivered exercise program can improve chemotherapy tolerability in patients with gastrointestinal or lung cancer receiving chemotherapy. In this decentralized, digital randomized clinical trial, up to 120 adults with gastrointestinal or lung cancer will be randomized to either a home-based aerobic and resistance exercise program or home-based progressive stretching program. All study activities will be conducted remotely using digital technologies and home-based assessments. Participants in both groups will receive Bluetooth-enabled wearable devices for monitoring physical activity, body weight, blood pressure, and other health measures. The primary objective is to determine whether exercise improves chemotherapy relative dose intensity compared with stretching. The intervention will continue throughout chemotherapy treatment or for up to 32 weeks.
