I’m really looking forward to the @LungCommunity LC Patients Symposium promises to be a 🔝event, top speakers providing useful practical information and of course time to meet others who have been impacted by the disease. Do you know someone who would benefit from attending???

🚨 Exercise is no longer optional, it is essential!

One of the most impactful studies at #ASCO25

🏃‍♂️ The #CHALLENGE trial (LBA4319) proves that structured exercise after chemo in stage III colon cancer is not just lifestyle—it’s life-saving.

📊 5y DFS: 80.3% vs 73.9%
❤️ 8y OS: 90.3% vs 83.2%
📉 Mortality risk ↓ by 37%
