This study looks at whether chemotherapy for blood cancers like leukemia and lymphoma can affect thinking, memory, or concentration. It compares patients to a close family member or friend to see if any changes are related to the treatment.
This study looks at how thinking and memory may change in children and young adults after a new cancer diagnosis, especially around chemotherapy. It may help doctors better understand and track brain-related side effects early.
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 looks at changes in thinking and brain function in people with early to locally advanced breast cancer before and during chemotherapy. You may also be offered a brain MRI in a separate optional part of the research to learn more about brain changes.
