EXercise Enhancement After RadioTherapy for Bone Metastases

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and acceptability of a structured, supervised exercise program combined with standard palliative radiotherapy for patients with painful non-spine bone metastases (NSBM).

This study investigates the potential benefits of exercise therapy for patients with bone metastases, a common and often painful complication of cancer. The study aims to determine whether a structured exercise program, in combination with standard of care cancer treatment, can improve physical function, quality of life, and overall well-being for patients undergoing palliative radiotherapy. Participants will complete a 8-week supervised exercise program that is tailored to their individual needs and abilities. The exercises, guided by certified professionals, will focus on improving strength, flexibility, and mobility. Participants will also receive educational sessions covering various aspects of self-management and coping strategies. The study monitor the safety and feasibility of the exercise program, as well as its impact on pain levels, functional abilities, and quality of life. Follow-up assessments will occur at 1, 3, and 6 months post-intervention to track progress and gather valuable insights into the potential benefits of exercise therapy for individuals with bone metastases. By exploring the role of exercise in cancer care, this study seeks to empower patients with new tools to manage their symptoms, enhance their well-being, and improve their overall quality of life throughout their cancer journey.
