This is a multicenter, two-cohort, open-label, single-arm feasibility study. The primary objective is to assess the feasibility of the 8-week trimodal prehabilitation program alongside perioperative triplet chemotherapy in eligible patients with localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) or oesogastric cancer (OGC) .
The POP-UP study aims to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an 8-week trimodal pre/posthabilitation program (consisting of personalized Adapted Physical Activity \[APA\], nutritional assessment, and psychological support) with remote monitoring of the APA sessions and nurse coordination in patients with localized (resectable or borderline resectable) PDAC who are treated with neoadjuvant or induction treatment (FOLFIRINOX: 5-fluorouracil/folinic acid, oxaliplatin, irinotecan) prior to surgery and with resectable OGC treated with perioperative chemotherapy (FLOT: 5-fluorouracil/folinic acid, oxaliplatin, docetaxel). The prehabilitation program will be conducted during neoadjuvant chemotherapy and the 3-5 weeks prior to surgery for a total of 8 weeks before surgery. There will be a total of three prehabilitation hospital days during the prehabilitation program. The preoperative prehabilitation will include: * Once per month, a prehabilitation hospital-day with functional capacities assessment with validated tests made by a physiotherapist or an APA professional (according of center resources/functioning), medical and nurse assessment evaluating performance status, chemotherapy toxicity and tolerance, and nutritional assessment (according to the functioning of each center it will be made by these professionals -with university training on nutrition- or a dietician). A therapeutic training session on the adherence to the prehabilitation program will be done by the nurse (trained in therapeutic education). * Weekly, an APA professional trainer will follow via using app (Activiti®) the APA home-based program. It will be based on the functional capacities assessment made during the prehabilitation hospital day. The exercise training program will consist of twice per week autonomy sessions, supervised and adapted by the APA professional, and once per week a guided session with the APA professional. The patient will have a total of 3 physical activity sessions per week. * Once per week, the nurse practitioner (or case manager, according to center functioning) will evaluate the patient via a videoconference to assess the chemotherapy toxicity and tolerance and patient's weight modifications. The posthabilitation program will start for a total of 8 weeks, one week after surgery discharge. The structure is the same as the prehabilitation program except for the follow of chemotherapy toxicity and tolerance that will be replaced by the follow of the surgical complications/consequences. There will be a total of three posthabilitation days at hospital during the posthabilitation program.
Cohort 1 - Prehabilitation program will be implemented during the last cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (cycle 5 - cycle 6 or cycle 6 - cycle 8) and the weeks preceding surgery (planned 3-4 weeks after the last chemotherapy cycle) Cohort 2 - Prehabilitation program will be implemented during the last cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (cycle 2 - cycle 4) and the weeks preceding surgery (planned 3-4 weeks after the last chemotherapy cycle)

RECRUITINGRate of patients with successful completion of an 8-week trimodal prehabilitation program
The success of prehabilitation is defined by the achievement of the following three criteria: 1. Completion of at least 75% of the planned APA sessions: 6 of 8 sessions with an APA professional and 12 of 16 sessions in autonomy with remote APA supervision and 2. Completion of at least 75% of the nutritional evaluations: 6 of 8 planned evaluations and 3. Psychological or psychiatric visit before the surgery in function of practice center /resources if a psychological need is shown by Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale
Time frame: 8 weeks
Success rate (as defined above) for Adapted Physical Activity (APA), nutritional, and psychological interventions measured separately.
The success of APA, nutritional, and psychological interventions analyzed separately
Time frame: 8 weeks
Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) assessment
HRQoL assessed using the EORTC Core Quality of Life questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) questionnaire for all patients.
Time frame: Up to 3 years
Rate of patients who start and complete post-habilitation Adapted Physical Activity (APA) sessions
Rate of patients who start and complete post-habilitation APA sessions; reasons for drop-out.
Time frame: 8 weeks
Nutritional status assessment
Nutritional status assessment by: Body mass index (BMI) - BMI will be calculated by dividing mass in kilograms (kg) by height in meters squared (m2). Food intake will be measured by visual analog scale SEFI \[Score d'Evaluation Facile des Ingesta=Ingesta Easy Evaluation Score\]). The SEFI is a score rated from 0 (nothing is consumed) to 10 (everything is consumed) in whole numbers. A SEFI \< 7/10 corresponds to decreased food intake and is associated with risk of malnutrition. A SEFI ≥ 7 corresponds to satisfactory food intake.

Physical/functional test assessment
Functional tests: 6-minute waking test, handgrip test, one minute sit-to-stand (STS), assessment of Borg scale post physical exercise will be measured. A 6-minutes walking test (distance measured in meters) will be performed. Dyspnea will be measured by the Borg scale Borg scale (ratings of the effort to breathe; a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 represents no dyspnea and 10 represents maximal dyspnea). Scores are obtained at the end of the walking test and reflect the maximum degree of dyspnea at any time during the walk test. Handgrip test - hand grip strength will be measured using dynamometer in sitting position and will be expressed in kilograms (kg). One-minute sit-and-stand test - Patients will perform stand-and-sit transitions on the chair as many times as possible within one minute. Number of of repetitions will be measured.
Time frame: 8 weeks
