Brain Training During CAR-T Cell Cancer Treatment
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests whether special brain exercises can help protect thinking and memory skills during CAR-T cell therapy—a newer cancer treatment for certain blood cancers. Researchers want to see if training your brain during treatment reduces side effects on memory and mental function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how thinking and brain function change over time in people with lymphoma who receive CAR T therapy. It may help doctors understand side effects and better support patients during and after treatment.
This trial looks at how CAR-T treatment affects the brain and thinking skills. It aims to better understand and help with side effects like confusion or memory problems.
This study looks at how a special type of immunotherapy called CAR-T therapy might affect your thinking skills, memory, and ability to focus. By checking on patients early and often, the team hopes to find simple ways to detect and manage these side effects sooner.
This study looks at how CAR T-cell treatment affects thinking, learning, and day-to-day brain function in children and young adults with certain blood cancers. You (and a caregiver) may complete online testing so researchers can track these changes over time and whether support is needed.
This study looks at how car-t therapy affects thinking and memory over time. If you have multiple myeloma and are getting this treatment, you may be able to help learn what to expect.
