EX-CIPN: An Exercise-based Rehabilitation Intervention to Treat Persistent Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN)
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the EX-CIPN exercise-based intervention is feasible, acceptable, and safe in participants with persistent chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). It will also give insight on the effectiveness of the exercise intervention in treating CIPN symptoms. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is EX-CIPN safe, acceptable, and feasible in cancer survivors experiencing persistent CIPN? * Are the study design and methods feasible (recruitment and retention rates, feasibility of data collection and procedures)? Researchers will provide all participants with the exercise-based intervention. Participants will: * Complete assessments at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and 3-months post-intervention * Complete a 10-week remote, individualized exercise program * Receive health coaching calls on weeks 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 of the intervention * Wear a FitBit throughout the study to track physical activity and promote behaviour change
