Physical Activity for Reduction of Recurrence Rate After Adjuvant Chemotherapy for Localised Colorectal Carcinoma


In this phase II pilot project the feasibility of a defined medical physical activity should
be verified for increased physical conversation. The study is conducted multicentric (single
group) with a study population of 30 patients. After completion of adjuvant chemotherapy the
patients will participate a defined physical training, 3 times per week within a time period
of 52 weeks. Planned study duration 2 years.


Inclusion Criteria:



- complete resected, histologically confirmed adeno carcinoma of colon or rectal and
condition after (neo-)adjuvant therapy either in (1) stage III or (2) stage II with
risk factor

- 4-16 weeks after the end of an adjuvant chemotherapy

- ECOG 0,1

- Age > 18 years

- adequate liver-, nephro- and hemogram parameters

- physical eligibility

Exclusion Criteria:

- significant comorbidities which exclude the participation

- evidence of local recurrence or distant metastases

- non-compliance of subject

- other malignancy within the last 5 years (except: skin basalioma, cervix carcinoma in
situ)

- clinically significant cardiovascular diseases

- treatment with beta blocker without possibility of adjustment

- left bundle-branch block

- simultaneous chemotherapy or radiotherapy

- pregnancy
