Brain training for kids after a brain tumor
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests if a special computer training program, which uses brain activity (neurofeedback) and thinking exercises, can help children who survived a brain tumor improve their attention and memory. If your child struggles with focus or planning after treatment, this may offer extra support.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 6 and 18 years old.
- You finished your main brain tumor treatment (surgery, chemo, or radiation) at least 6 months ago.
- You have trouble with attention, focus, or planning (for example, staying on task or remembering things).
- You can attend training sessions at the study center for 4 weeks (usually 2–3 times a week).
- You do not have severe health problems, like uncontrolled seizures, that would prevent you from doing computer-based training.

This study looks at how proton radiation affects brain networks in children and teens with brain tumors. It uses MRI scans and computer tasks to understand changes in the brain during and after treatment.
This study looks at whether a computer-based cognitive training program can help improve thinking and memory in children and young adults who have had a brain tumor. It may help to understand how the brain changes with this training and potentially improve daily life.
This trial tests a computer-based “attention-control training” program to see if it’s doable and helpful for children who finished treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia or a brain tumor. It also looks at how acceptable the program is for both kids and caregivers.
This trial tests whether a computer-based cognitive training program in a virtual reality setting can help children think and learn while they are getting radiation for a brain tumor. You and a parent will decide together if it’s a good fit, and the child must be able to complete the study tasks.
This study tests whether a virtual home-based exercise program can improve thinking and memory problems caused by brain tumor treatment in teens and young adults. It also looks at how exercise affects gut health.
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.
