Adapted Physical Activity for adults with brain tumors
Official title: Feasibility Assessment of Adapted Physical Activity in Patients Treated for a Brain Tumor
Run by Center Eugene Marquis · NCT07570485 · Data updated 2026-11-12
We’re testing whether a supervised adapted physical activity program is feasible for adults with primary brain tumors and what adherence looks like.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18) with a primary brain tumor undergoing medical oncology treatment, able to participate in a supervised activity and with access to a smartwatch and compatible devices.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients uncomfortable with or unable to participate in physical activity or those lacking access to required devices may not benefit.

What this trial studies
This trial examines the feasibility of a 3-month supervised adapted physical activity program in adults with primary brain tumors. It will measure adherence, session completion, intensity and duration, and retention, as well as changes in quality of life and cancer-related symptoms using standardized questionnaires at baseline, 3 months, and 4 months. The study includes adults receiving medical oncology treatment who can participate despite possible motor, sensory, attention, or memory deficits and who have access to the required devices. Safety and feasibility outcomes will guide future larger studies.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If feasible, APA could become a practical way to support quality of life and reduce cancer-related symptoms in brain tumor patients.
How similar studies have gone: Some previous studies in other cancer populations suggest feasibility and potential benefits of physical activity programs, but data in brain tumor patients are limited.
