Methods Cochrane Library, JBI Database of Systematic Reviews, MEDLINE, EMbase, CINAHL, Chinese Journal Full- text Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, and Wanfang Databse were searched from the inception to November 2014 to screen the systematic review and Meta-analysis conforming to the inclusion criteria. Two authors independently appraised their methodological qualities with Overview Quality Assessment Questionnaire (OQAQ), and analyzed the data using descriptive analysis. The primary outcome included the scaling of cancer related fatigue, the secondary outcome included adherence to exercise intervention and the incidence of adverse events. Results Fourteen systematic review/Meta-analysis were identified, twelve of them had a high methodological quality (Scoring 5-7). Six systematic review/Meta-analysis found that aerobic exercise could effectively alleviate cancer related fatigue, especially for breast cancer patients;seven articles showed that exercise could modulate cancer related fatigue of patients under active treatments;seven articles reported the compliance to the exercise intervention, four articles reported adverse events occurring during the intervention, very few of them resulted directly from the exercise intervention. Conclusions Exercise intervention can modulate cancer related fatigue with good safety.
