About this study
The goal of this clinical trial is to verify the effectiveness and safety of the low load blood flow restriction training program. The intervention effect, tolerance and compliance of low load blood flow restriction training and progressive resistance training on lung cancer patients complicated with sarcopenia during chemotherapy will be compared, in order to provide new ideas for improving or reversing sarcopenia.

Can low load blood flow restriction training improve sarcopenia in chemotherapy induced lung cancer patients? Which training method is more effective and tolerable between low load blood flow restriction training and progressive resistance training?
Participants will be randomly divided into 3 groups：
- Routine care group (Control group, CON): The researchers will provide participants with regular exercise and dietary guidance.
- Low load blood flow restriction group (LL-BFRT): The researchers will provide participants with a low load blood flow restriction training program constructed by our research group.
- Progressive resistance training group (PRE): The researchers will provide participants with progressive resistance training.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Low load blood flow restriction trainingBehavioural
Low load blood flow restriction training will be conducted on the subjects three times a week. Each training session includes upper and lower limb training, with 4 groups trained and repeated 30, 15, 15, and 15 times for each group. Train for a total of 12 weeks.The resistance strength will remain at 30% RM for weeks 1-12.
Progressive resistance training groupBehavioural
The subjects will undergo progressive resistance training three days a week, three groups per day, with each group repeating 10 times. Training includes upper and lower limbs. The resistance load increases over time, with a resistance load of 30% RM for weeks 1-4, 50% RM for weeks 5-8, and 70% RM for weeks 9-12.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Routine care group (Control group, CON) | No intervention | During hospitalization, patients will be given routine exercise and dietary guidance. |
| Low load blood flow restriction training group (LL-BFRT) | Experimental | On the basis of routine care, participants who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be guided to undergo low-load blood flow restriction training. Based on the constructed "Low load Blood Flow Restriction Training Program for Chemotherapy Stage Lung Cancer Patients with Sarcopenia", participants will be guided to undergo low-load blood flow restriction training. Receives: Behavioral: Low load blood flow restriction training |
| Progressive resistance training group (PRE) | Active comparator | On the basis of routine care, progressive resistance training will be conducted on subjects who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria, guided by the progressive resistance training program for malignant tumor patients in the "ACSM Exercise Testing and Exercise Prescription Guidelines: 10th Edition" published by the People's Health Press. Receives: Behavioral: Progressive resistance training group |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Grip strength
The grip strength of the participant's preferred hand
Measured: Grip strength will be measured at 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks after intervention
Appendicular Skeletal Muscle Index (ASMI)
Using a human body composition analyzer (ICOMEON-FI2001B) to measure the skeletal muscle mass (ASM) of the limbs, and calculating ASMI using a formula. ASMI=ASM/height^2
Measured: ASMI will be measured at 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks after intervention
Step speed
Measure the walking speed of 6m
Measured: Step speed will be measured at 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks after intervention
Secondary outcomes (4)

Measure height and weight using height measuring instruments and scales
Measured: BMI will be measured at 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks after intervention
Quality of life for lung cancer patients
Using the QLQ-LC 43 scale to measure the quality of life in lung cancer patients
Measured: Quality of life for lung cancer patients will be measured at 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks after intervention
Exercise compliance
This includes participation rate, interruption rate (number of missed training sessions), termination rate (termination of training before 12 weeks), and dose adjustment rate (adjustment of training load or frequency)
Measured: Exercise compliance will be measured at12 weeks after intervention
Exercise safety
Record the frequency and time of adverse events caused by exercise, such as muscle pain, joint pain, dizziness, skin bruising, etc., and calculate the incidence rate of adverse events
Measured: Exercise safety will be measured at12 weeks after intervention

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Grip strength (time frame: Grip strength will be measured at 3, 6, 9, and 12 weeks after intervention). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Apr 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
