Brain games may beat chemo fog
NCT ID NCT05283629
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether special computer-based brain exercises can improve memory, concentration, and thinking in breast cancer survivors who have ongoing mental fogginess after chemotherapy. About 50 women aged 35 to 80 who finished chemo 1 to 8 years ago will either do the brain training or receive education only for 6 weeks. The goal is to see if the training reduces their cognitive complaints and improves test performance.
