Brief Summary: This clinical trial evaluates the tolerability of a physical activity program in head and neck cancer patients who are undergoing cancer treatment The goal of this trial is to give patients exercises prescribed by a physical therapist that they are able to complete regularly at home Increasing physical activity may help patients reduce fatigue improve mood increase physical performance and decrease joint pain
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVE

I To compare the changes in physical activity between the control and intervention groups of patients with head and neck or lung cancer at 6-weeks and 12-weeks compared to baseline

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES

I To demonstrate the feasibility engagement retention and acceptability of physical activity promotion intervention in patients with head and neck or lung cancer

II To calculate the effect sizes for the differences between the control and intervention in daily changes in psychosocial outcomes at 6-weeks and 12-weeks compared to baseline

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE

I To calculate the effect sizes for the differences between the control and intervention in changes in immunomodulatory metabolic and aging biomarkers at 6-weeks and 12-weeks compared to baseline

OUTLINE Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms

ARM I Beginning 1 week prior to start of intervention patients receive a Fitbit to monitor physical activity for 13 weeks Patients receive consultation and personalized exercise prescription from a physical therapist at baseline and attend exercise training sessions with a physical therapist during weeks 1 3 6 9 and 12 Patients also attend behavior modification sessions with a behavioral therapist that focus on goal setting and healthy behavior changes during weeks 2 4 5 7 8 10 and 11

ARM II Patients receive a Fitbit to monitor physical activity for 12 weeks Patients also receive consultation from a physical therapist to assess physical performance at weeks 1 6 and 12

After completion of study intervention patients are followed up at 30 days

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE

I To demonstrate the difference in the magnitude of physical activity improvements between the immunotherapy and chemo-immunotherapy patients
