About This Trial
CYCLE-CIPN is a proof-of-concept study designed to evaluate whether a prescribed aerobic exercise intervention has the potential to reduce the symptoms and functional impact of CIPN. The small number of participants in the proposed study will allow us to make decisions on the feasibility ("go/no-go") of a future larger-scale trial. The protocol will assess feasibility and acceptability through recruitment, completion, adherence, program satisfaction, and safety. The study will also evaluate CIPN symptoms using both patient-reported and objective outcome measures, as well as fitness and quality of life outcomes. We aim to recruit 30 participants. The Health Research Board of Alberta Cancer Committee has approved this study. Participants will participate in a stationary cycling-based aerobic exercise program biweekly for 12 weeks. Exercise sessions will be supervised and progressive, between 30 and 60 minutes each.
