Can prostate cancer treatment affect your thinking? new study investigates
NCT ID NCT05540782
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how prostate cancer survivors' thinking and memory (called cognitive function) may be linked to other health issues like anxiety, depression, and trouble sleeping. Researchers will also examine how social factors, cancer details, and treatments might play a role. About 200 English-speaking adults who have had prostate cancer but no current signs of disease will take surveys to help understand these connections.
