Brain training at home to help with chemo brain after breast cancer treatment
Part of Cancer, Mental health, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a supervised computer-based mental exercise program to help reduce memory and thinking problems after chemotherapy. It is for people who finished chemo for early-stage breast cancer and still have bothersome mental fogginess.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at whether combining cognitive training (brain exercises) with physical exercise can help improve memory and thinking problems that some women experience after breast cancer treatment. The goal is to see if this program can boost your thinking skills and quality of life.
This trial studies whether a structured exercise program can help protect or improve thinking and memory in people with breast cancer while they are starting chemotherapy after surgery. It may help with “chemo brain” by targeting brain function during treatment.
This study looks at how chemotherapy may affect memory and thinking, using thinking tests and possibly brain imaging. It compares older breast cancer patients who do and do not get chemotherapy, plus a group of healthy older adults.
This study checks how breast cancer affects memory and thinking before other treatments start. It may help doctors better understand cognitive changes and who is most at risk.
This study tests whether brain stimulation plus cognitive training can improve thinking and memory problems in women after chemotherapy for breast cancer. It may help if you still feel “foggy” or have trouble concentrating months after treatment.
This study compares two ways of doing brain-training exercises (in a group or on your own) to see if they help reduce 'chemo brain' — the memory and focus problems some people get during breast cancer treatment. You would be randomly assigned to one of the two training approaches.
