What Research is Being Done on Cognitive Issues in Cancer?
Ongoing research aims to better understand the mechanisms behind cognitive impairment and develop more effective treatments. Studies are exploring:
- Neuroprotective Agents: Drugs that may protect the brain from the toxic effects of cancer treatments. - Biomarkers: Identifying markers that can predict which patients are at higher risk for cognitive issues. - Interventional Studies: Trials testing cognitive rehabilitation programs and other interventions to improve cognitive function.
