Exercise: 30-minutes exercise on a bicycle with heart rate monitor and gas exchange analyzer.
Study summary
The main purpose of the study is to characterize the production of hepatokines (FGF21 and Follistatin) in response to a submaximal exercise on an ergocycle, in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. The effect of exercise on hepatokines and metabolites production in liver cancer patients is not known. Studying this production could help to provide relevant recommendations for training programming in these patients.
