Experimental: Exercise intervention
The exercise program will be similar to the Exercise in All ChemoTherapy (ENACT) study which combines in-person and home-based strength training and aerobic exercise five days a week.
|
Behavioral: Exercise intervention
Moving Through Cancer: A Guide to Exercise for Cancer Survivors" will serve as the framework for an American College of Sports Medicine certified exercise physiologist with additional Cancer Exercise training to teach proper warm up, use of equipment, exercise form, mode of activity, intensity of exercise, flexibility exercises, and cool down.
|
No Intervention: Standard of Care
Subjects are instructed to maintain their current activity level.

Brief Summary | The overall goal of this proposal is to test the effect of exercise to delay or avert HCC recurrence and gain information regarding the potential molecular mechanisms of HCC tumor inhibition by exercise. | ||||||||
Detailed Description | Primary liver cancer is the leading cause of cancer worldwide. The majority of primary liver cancers are hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and occur in the setting of cirrhosis of the liver. Body fat and systemic inflammation are determinants of HCC risk. Cirrhotic patients with HCC are often treated with locoregional therapies including transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) as a bridge to liver transplantation. Despite this, HCC recurrence rates approach 80%. There is a growing body of evidence to suggest the benefit of exercise in cancer patients. Exercise decreases disease recurrence and improves survival in other primary cancers by altering tumor biology and influencing response to treatment. Although animal models suggest biologic plausibility, whether or not exercise prevents HCC recurrence in cancer patients remains unknown. The overall goal of this proposal is to test the effect of exercise to delay or avert HCC recurrence and gain information regarding the potential molecular mechanisms of HCC tumor inhibition by exercise. | ||||||||
