Structured exercise interventions and survival outcomes in patients with cancer: systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials
Listen to this summary
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the impact of structured exercise interventions on survival outcomes in cancer patients. The findings indicated that such interventions significantly improved overall survival, disease-free survival, and reduced both all-cause and cancer-specific mortality, suggesting that structured exercise may serve as an effective adjuvant therapy in oncology care. The authors highlight the potential benefits of exercise beyond quality of life improvements, particularly for patients with higher adherence and early-stage disease.
