Phase N/A
Study Participation Summary

We are looking for adults who are at least 18 years old and have a condition called sarcopenia (loss of muscle mass and strength) and are planning to have surgery for pancreatic cancer. This study aims to see if exercising before surgery can help improve recovery after the operation by lowering the chance of complications.

Key Points:

  • The study involves a pre-surgery exercise program.
  • You cannot join if you have serious heart or blood vessel issues or cannot exercise.
  • The study is not for emergency surgeries.
