RECRUITING

GYNecologic Cancer-Related COGnitive Impairment

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this study is to test a home-based and patient-tailored cognitive training intervention among gynecologic cancer patients who have completed chemotherapy and who have experienced cancer-related cognitive impairment.
