New study investigates memory and mood problems in lung cancer patients on targeted therapy
NCT ID NCT06781905
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at memory, thinking, and mood problems that can happen with certain targeted lung cancer drugs (ALK/ROS1 inhibitors). About 20 patients who have these side effects will undergo detailed brain and psychiatric tests. The goal is to better understand these issues and create a care plan that involves patients and researchers working together.
