Brain training for thinking problems during colon cancer treatment
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a computer-based brain training program can help with memory and thinking problems (often called 'chemobrain') that some people experience during colon cancer treatment. It is for adults with newly diagnosed colon cancer who are starting or receiving active cancer therapy.

This study tests whether a group or individual computer-based brain training program can help with memory and thinking problems (chemobrain) caused by chemotherapy in people with breast cancer. You would be asked to complete training sessions while you are receiving cancer treatment.
This study tests whether a computer-based brain training program delivered in a group setting can help women who experienced memory or thinking problems after breast cancer treatment. The program is designed to retrain and improve how your brain processes information.
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.
This study tests a digital program to help with memory and thinking problems that some people experience after cancer treatment. It is designed for survivors who finished chemotherapy recently and have access to a computer or tablet at home.
This trial studies a phone or tablet brain-training program to help with “cancer-related cognitive impairment,” or thinking and memory problems that can happen during chemotherapy. If you’re newly diagnosed with certain gynecologic cancers and are receiving chemotherapy, this may help you see whether the training improves cognitive symptoms.
This study looks at memory and thinking problems in women who have finished treatment for hormone-positive breast cancer. The goal is to find ways to help with these issues.
