In the past I have also seen reported two other reasons for cancer patients to exercize:
In a study of healthy individuals exercizing was shown to increase the endogenous production of the antiangiogenic Andostatin (which has been tried as cancer treatment in the US & is now approved in a modified version in China under the name Endostar).
A comment by an MD alleges that exerczing increases endogenous peroxide which would be toxic to cancer cells.
