The report described here is a systematic review and meta-analysis of 28 studies examining the relationship between physical exercise and cancer-related fatigue in adults with cancer. Overall, exercise was associated with improvements in cancer-related fatigue both during and after treatment. The data was most robust for patients with breast and prostate cancer. Aerobic exercise was the only specific type of exercise associated with an improvement in fatigue. Further study is needed to determine whether other types of exercise, such as resistance training and mind-body exercises like yoga, impact cancer-related fatigue. Further study would clarify whether exercise is associated with improvements in cancer-related fatigue for patients with malignancies other than breast or prostate cancer.
