ClinConnect Summary

The APAORL2 study is a clinical trial designed to see if a special physical activity program can help patients with upper aerodigestive tract cancer become more active and less sedentary over an 18-month period. This means the researchers want to find out if regular exercise can improve the physical health and well-being of patients who are recovering from this type of cancer.

To participate in this study, you need to be at least 18 years old and have a newly diagnosed, non-spreading form of upper aerodigestive tract cancer. You should also have a good chance of living for at least 18 months and have access to a smartphone, tablet, or computer with the internet for remote exercise sessions. If you have any health issues that prevent you from doing moderate exercise or if there are other reasons that would make it hard for you to take part in the study, you may not be eligible. If you join, you can expect to be part of a supportive program that encourages you to stay active while receiving care for your cancer.
