Abstract: In the rehabilitation of cancer patients, a specific approach is important, which depends on the affected site, the histological type of the tumour, the stage of the disease, the progress of the cancer treatment, the age of the patient, the prognosis, the psychological state and the social background. The aim of this paper is to use the narrative review method, to summarize and to interpret the findings of studies dealing with physical activity interventions for selected cancer symptoms. We reviewed published studies, systematic reviews and meta-analyses of outcomes related to physical activity in cancer patients using the Medline/PubMed database. In the published studies, the authors provided ample evidence that adequate specifically dosed aerobic, resistance, or combined training can improve depressive symptoms, anxiety, fatigue, physical performance, and health-related quality of life. Experts in the literature have emphasized the need for studies focusing on the benefits of physical activity exercise also in the prevention and management of other sequelae of cancer disease and its treatment.
