To determine the effects of exercise training in patients with lung cancer during chemotherapy treatment. In currently accessible literature, majority studies, met-analysis, and systemic reviews are related to surgical procedures and post-op pulmonary Rehabilitation of patients with Lung cancer. In literature, Gap related to the control group was observed also. The current study aimed to fulfill this gap by planning a structured intervention plan for the control group as well. It will also add in literature the deficiency of oncology rehab for patients receiving chemotherapy only.
Literature suggested that a pulmonary rehabilitation program for patients with non-small cell lung cancer undergoing induction chemo-radiotherapy seems to improve respiratory function. It is particularly recommended for smokers and patients with respiratory impairment.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Interventional Group | Experimental | Pulmonary exercises + Aerobic training, 40%-60% intensity 3 days/ week for 4 weeks |
|
| Control group | Placebo Comparator | Pulmonary exercises, 3 sessions per week and 3-5 repetitions in a session for 4 weeks. |
|
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aerobic training | Other | Aerobic training ( with cycle ergometer, 5-minute warm-up 15 - 30 minute cycle +5 minute cooldown) 40%-60% intensity calculated through Karvonen formula 3 days/ week |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| 6 min walk test: Distance (meters) | Changes from the baseline, 6 min walk test (6 MWT) was used to measure Functional capacity. It is a sub maximal exercise test which can aid in assessing functional capacity of patients with cardiopulmonary diseases, in this test we find out the maximum distance in meters which an individual covers in 6 min without any support. | 4 weeks |
| Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) | Changes from the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second FEV1 in Liters | 4 weeks |
| Forced vital Capacity (FVC) | Changes From the Baseline, the digital spirometer is used in clinical setting to analyze Forced vital Capacity in Liters | 4 weeks |
| Rate of perceived exertion (RPE) | Changes From the Baseline, measured through Borg RPE scale which measures a person's perception of their effort and exertion breathlessness, and fatigue during physical work rating between 1 and 10. The higher the number, the more intense the exercise. An RPE of 1 is often referred to as just above rest, hardly any exertion, while an RPE of 10 is a maximal effort. | 4 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Mindfulness | Changes From the Baseline, measured through MAAS. The MAAS is a 15-item scale designed to assess a core characteristic of dispositional mindfulness, namely, open or receptive awareness of and attention to what is taking place in the present. The scale shows strong psychometric properties and has been validated with college, community, and cancer patient samples.Higher scores reflect higher levels of dispositional mindfulness |
