Pilot study of an inpatient physical activity intervention for older adults treated intensively for acute myeloid leukemia

Key Points • A symptom-adapted PA intervention during intensive induction is feasible for older adults with AML.• A PA intervention during induction chemotherapy may attenuate decline in function but requires further study.
