Summary

The purpose of this study is to better understand whether or not children with ALL can complete an exercise program during treatment and whether or not that program may impact peripheral neuropathy. Researchers will also study changes in the blood and body that may occur during the program by collecting samples of blood at various times during the study. Aim 1: Evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of EX as an intervention for VIPN in pediatric patients with ALL. Aim 2: Estimate preliminary effect sizes of the EX intervention.
