Study Summary

The purpose of this research is to determine whether a 16-week virtually supervised aerobic and resistance exercise program is feasible in patients receiving first-line chemotherapy after surgery for ovarian or endometrial cancer and if it will improve lower extremity function (function of the legs), lessen chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN; numbness or tingling in the hands or feet), and if there is any effect on inflammatory blood markers (the level of a certain marker in the blood that is associated with inflammation; redness and swelling).

Primary Outcome

The feasibility of the 16-week exercise intervention is defined as the proportion of patients completing the exercise intervention sessions. The analysis population will be the eligible patients who are assigned to the intervention group (N=20). The investigators will estimate the proportion and corresponding 95% exact confidence interval (CI).99 The Investigators expect that the proportion is 70% or higher
