Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome Cognitive Dysfunction

Quick Navigation

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 purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of an at-home MMT treatment in patients with cognitive dysfunction related to PASC, and to collect data on safety and efficacy to inform the design of larger clinical studies. A prospective randomized controlled study of 30 participants with PASC and moderate to severe cognitive dysfunction. Total study duration will be 8 weeks, including 4 weeks of treatment and 4 weeks of untreated follow up.
