UK researchers are carrying out a trial to see if exercise therapy can help men with prostate cancer when the disease is caught early.
They will monitor high levels of PSA, a protein produced by prostate cells, in the bloodstream that can be a sign of cancer.
Dr Liam Bourk, lead researcher, said, "Evidence suggests that men who are physically active after a prostate cancer diagnosis have better cancer survival than men who aren't active. It's not clear yet how this works, but it might be that exercise affects the way some genes regulate cancer cell growth and DNA repair. If we show it works and is feasible, it could be a real leap forward for cancer patients.”
