Physical Activity and Neuropsychological Outcomes in a Cancer Population
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Exercise and Control for Cognitive Dysfunction and Breast Cancer Survivors. Completed, enrolled 87 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Many cancer survivors experience treatment-related impairments in mental abilities such as memory, attention, and concentration (known as cognition). Research indicates that physical activity can improve cognition in healthy adults; however, little is known about whether physical activity can improve cognition among cancer survivors. This study will test whether a physical activity intervention results in improvements in cognition among breast cancer survivors, which may lead to interventions to improve cognition.
