Exercise and Soft Tissue Sarcoma (NCT04921917)
The Effect of Exercise on Patient Outcomes During Treatment of Soft Tissue Sarcoma With Neoadjuvant Radiation Therapy and Surgical Resection
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a neoadjuvant (i.e. pre-treatment) exercise regimen on extremity function and postoperative wound healing. The study group will include patients with a primary diagnosis of soft tissue sarcoma undergoing treatment with neoadjuvant radiation therapy and surgical resection. Patients with upper or lower extremity sarcomas will be considered for enrollment.
