About this study

Official title: Effect of a Home-based, Supervised Prehabilitation With Wearable Technology for Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Before Lung Resection: a Single-arm, Prospective Study

To explore the safety and compliance of a wearable telemedicine device that can receive basic vital signs in real time, and its active supervision mode with real-time adjustment of exercise prescription for preoperative prehabilitation exercises in patients at home; and to evaluate the effectiveness of preoperative prehabilitation exercises in a telemedicine active supervision mode in patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung tumour resection, taking into account the patient's cardiopulmonary exercise test, postoperative complications and quality of life scores.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Study feasibility

    Assessed by the following indicators: study participation rate, screening and enrollment rates, intervention completion rate, number of completed exercise days, wearable-device wearing days and wearing rate, analyzable activity days, paper-log completion, app-based electronic-log completion, alert generation and closure, intervention discontinuation, adverse events, and serious adverse events

    Measured: Baseline, 4 weeks after prehabilitation exercise

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Pre-post changes in cardiopulmonary exercise testing

    Peak oxygen uptake, peak workload, anaerobic-threshold measures

    Measured: Baseline, 4 weeks of prehabilitation exercise

  2. Forced expiratory volume in 1 s(FEV1)

    Forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) of pulmonary function will be measured in liters

    Measured: Baseline, 4 weeks after prehabilitation exercise, 7 days after surgery, 30 days after surgery

  3. Forced vital capacity (FVC)

    Forced vital capacity (FVC) of pulmonary function will be measured in liters.

    Measured: Baseline, 4 weeks after prehabilitation exercise, 7 days after surgery, 30 days after surgery

  4. Change in quality of life

    as assessed by the EORTC QLQ C30 questionnaire

    Measured: Baseline, 4 weeks after prehabilitation exercise, 7 days after surgery, 30 days after surgery

  5. Post-operative complications

    Classified using the Clavien Dindo Classification

    Measured: 30-days after surgery (T4)

  6. Moderate to vigorous physical activity

    Daily total minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA)

    Measured: Baseline, 4 weeks of prehabilitation exercise

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Multimodal prehabilitation in people with Prehabilitation and Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Tongji Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Study feasibility (time frame: Baseline, 4 weeks after prehabilitation exercise). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05608759, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Jun 2026.
