abstract = {This individual patient data meta-analysis aimed to
evaluate the effects of exercise on quality of life (QoL)
and physical function (PF) in patients with cancer, and to
identify moderator effects of demographic (age, sex, marital
status, education), clinical (body mass index, cancer type,
presence of metastasis), intervention-related (intervention
timing, delivery mode and duration, and type of control
group), and exercise-related (exercise frequency, intensity,
type, time) characteristics. Relevant published and
unpublished studies were identified in September 2012 via
PubMed, EMBASE, PsycINFO, and CINAHL, reference checking and
personal communications. Principle investigators of all 69
eligible trials were requested to share IPD from their
study. IPD from 34 randomised controlled trials (n=4519
patients) that evaluated the effects of exercise compared to
a usual care, wait-list or attention control group on QoL
and PF in adult patients with cancer were retrieved and
pooled. Linear mixed-effect models were used to evaluate the
effects of the exercise on post-intervention outcome values
(z-score) adjusting for baseline values. Moderator effects
were studies by testing interactions. Exercise significantly
improved QoL (β=0.15, $95\%CI=0.10;0.20)$ and PF (β=0.18,
$95\%CI=0.13;0.23).$ The effects were not moderated by
demographic, clinical or exercise characteristics. Effects
on QoL $(βdifference_in_effect=0.13,$ $95\%CI=0.03;0.22)$
and PF $(βdifference_in_effect=0.10,$ $95\%CI=0.01;0.20)$
were significantly larger for supervised than unsupervised
interventions. In conclusion, exercise, and particularly
supervised exercise, effectively improves QoL and PF in
patients with cancer with different demographic and clinical
characteristics during and following treatment. Although
effect sizes are small, there is consistent empirical
evidence to support implementation of exercise as part of
cancer care.},
