Breast Cancer Clinical Trial
Improving Cognition After Cancer
Summary
This study will test whether a physical activity intervention can improve cognition in breast cancer survivors and help the development of physical activity guidelines for cognition in breast cancer survivors.
Full Description
Many breast cancer survivors experience problems with mental abilities such as memory, attention, and concentration (known as cognition). Increasing physical activity has been shown to improve cognition in adults; however, little is known about whether this is helpful for cancer survivors as well. This study will test whether a physical activity intervention can improve cognition in breast cancer survivors and help the development of physical activity guidelines for cognition in breast cancer survivors.
