Dr. Sharlene Gill, MD, joins the MedInsights Unleashed podcast to discuss the Challenge Study’s promising results on exercise in cancer care. Conducted over 17 years, the study revealed that colon cancer patients engaging in structured exercise post-treatment exhibited improved survival rates. The trial involved a comprehensive three-year program incorporating both in-person and virtual components, emphasizing physical activity alongside psychological support. Published in the New England Journal of Medicine (Structured Exercise after Adjuvant Chemotherapy for Colon Cancer) these findings could shift cancer treatment paradigms, advocating for the inclusion of formal exercise programs in post-chemotherapy care to enhance life expectancy and recovery in cancer patients.
