A phase III study of the impact of a physical activity program on disease-free survival in patients with high-risk stage II or stage III colon cancer: A randomized controlled trial (NCIC CTG CO.21).
Abstract
TPS3647
Background: Observational data indicate that physical activity (PA) is strongly associated with colon-cancer specific survival. NCIC CTG CO.21 (CHALLENGE) is designed to determine the effects of a structured PA intervention on disease-control outcomes for survivors of high-risk stage II or III colon cancer who have completed adjuvant chemotherapy within the previous 2-6 months. Methods: Phase III randomized controlled …
