Comparing two programs for brain tumor patients
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This study compares two programs that help brain tumor patients with thinking and memory issues. The goal is to see which program works better for improving daily life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how cancer and its treatment affect thinking and memory. It may help doctors understand and predict these changes, which could improve care.
This trial studies how radiotherapy affects memory and thinking in adults with certain brain or skull-base tumors. It may help doctors understand who is most likely to have thinking changes and how to monitor or support patients.
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 a home-based program called HOBSCOTCH-CA to help with memory and thinking problems after brain cancer treatment. The program uses phone and internet sessions to teach self-management skills.
This study looks at how a computer-based thinking and memory training program may affect the brain in children and young adults who have had brain tumors. It might help improve cognitive function after treatment.
