A major breakthrough in cancer care — led right here at Queen's University.

In a world-first clinical trial, Dr. Christopher Booth has shown for the first time that a structured exercise program significantly improves survival for colon cancer patients. The trial was led by the Canadian Cancer Trials Group in collaboration with the Sinclair Cancer Research Institute, Kingston Health Sciences Centre, and KHSC Research Institute.

The findings prove that adding just 2.5 hours of moderate exercise per week after treatment can reduce cancer recurrence, improve quality of life, and extend survival.

We are beyond proud to see at the forefront of this global impact. Read the full story ➡️ https://bit.ly/43GNzil
