Summary

Multicenter randomized controlled trial. Patients will be randomly assigned to the control group or the intervention group in each of the health centers.

The control group will receive the usual care, while the intervention group will add an individualized physical exercise program to the usual care.

Cancer is a disease of the elderly. More than 65% of all malignancies affect this population. At the same time, the incidence of cancer cases increases and the need to better understand the biological characteristics of the disease, as well as those of the elderly who suffer from it, is highlighted.

Oncogeriatrics is the area that addresses the care of the elderly patient with cancer, taking into account that physiological aging causes older people to have their own characteristics that require a differential approach in care. The low inclusion in clinical trials of elderly patients and the few specific trials carried out in this subpopulation together with the progressive aging of the population mean that the development of this area has become a priority in health policies.

Therefore, there is a need to focus the research area on supervised physical exercise in older people with cancer in an innovative way, with the aim of generating new hypotheses that overcome existing limitations and facilitate the introduction into the health system of this type of interventions.
