Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Are expected that the semi-supervised home-based physical training (aerobic and resistance combined) will present protect effect on physical performance, and on the biological and mental parameters of patients with primary lung or head and/or neck cancer, with positive results on peripheral muscle strength, functional capacity, physical activity level, body composition, quality of life, anxiety and depression and symptoms related to oncology treatment. In addition to effective promotion in preventing the reduction of the oncological treatment dose initially prescribed.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Are expected that patients with primary lung or head and/or neck cancer, undergo semi-supervised home-based physical training (aerobic and resistance combined), presenting satisfaction, and it is expected that the hospitalization rate in three, six and nine months of follow-up will be lower in the GT patients, and the 12-month survival will be higher in these group.
