As cancer progresses, patients may experience physical decline, which can impair their ability to carry out essential daily tasks. The aim of this study was analyze the levels activity in with advanced undergoing systemic treatment and its relationship sociodemographic, clinical, psychological factors. A prospective, cross-sectional, multicenter carried 15 oncology departments Spain. Patients locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic who were candidates for included. Participants completed demographic information scales. In total, 508 included study, majority whom male, over age 65, diagnosed bronchopulmonary tumors (36%) disease. Based on levels, participants categorized as sedentary (20%, n = 190), engaging light (43%, 412), demonstrating moderate (37%, 351). 65 years old; had a worse baseline status (ECOG ≥ 1); lacked partner; lower educational level; retired unemployed found have activity. Those reported higher distress, anxiety, depression, somatization, symptoms, well functional status, global health well-being. Understanding complex interplay between factors help neuroscientists develop tailored exercise interventions that address unique needs patients.

ABSTRACT Purpose This qualitative study aimed to explore the experiences of patients with cancer and bone metastases who participated in a personalized exercise program. Methods Individual interviews were conducted through purposeful sampling attended 3‐month supervised Using phenomenological approach, semi‐structured questions developed investigate benefits, risks, facilitators, barriers related exercise. Data analyzed using inductive thematic analysis. Results Thirteen mixed types study. Patients recognized physical psychological benefits exercise, such as improvements fitness, health, reduction symptoms, especially pain fatigue, increase self‐confidence. While they did not perceive any disadvantage from participating program, acknowledged risk fractures or exacerbation lesions if intervention is tailored supervised. The program's structure, including involvement dedicated specialists, has been reported fundamental pillar. Among modulators for participation adherence, comorbidities associated metastases, logistic barriers, lack social support may be obstacles. Conversely, recommendations oncologist, personal motivation, peer found facilitators practice. Conclusions expressed broad range structured Several affect uptake adherence thus should considered when designing
