Summary
This study tests whether a mobile cognitive training app can reduce 'chemobrain'—memory and thinking problems caused by chemotherapy—in people with gynecologic cancers. Sixty-four participants will use the app on their own phones while undergoing chemotherapy and complete thinking tests. The goal is to see if this simple, at-home tool can help ease these common side effects.
