An Investigation of Chemotherapy Induced Cognitive Impairments in Breast Cancer Survivors
An Investigation of Chemotherapy Induced Cognitive Impairments in Breast Cancer
The main goal of this project is to identify and remediate the cognitive difficulties, including processing speed and attention deficits in individuals who have undergone chemotherapy treatment. Recent research has demonstrated objective cognitive deficits following chemotherapy and that it is not an emotional reaction to the cancer diagnosis as it was once considered. There are a large number of woman diagnosed and treated for breast cancer that experience chemotherapy induced cognitive deficits.
Subjects who participate in the study will be evaluated for cognitive abilities prior to chemotherapy treatment and after completion of chemotherapy. Participants will then have the option to participate in the second phase of the study, which involves the use of a computer-based Brain Fitness Program for 12 weeks. This is followed by another cognitive evaluation.

Eksperimentell: Breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy treatment
|
The program is designed to improve processing speed of auditory information and attention.
The BFP is comprised of six computerized subtests that continuously adjust in the level of difficulty to maintain an 85% correct response rate.
The subtest exercises include discrimination of confusable syllables, recognition of sequences of syllables, matching pairs of confusable syllables, reconstruction of sequences of verbal instructions and identification of details in a verbally presented story.
Participants will participate in 40 one-hour training sessions over a 12 week period to complete all cognitive remediation training sessions.
Since this intervention is presented both visually and verbally, noise cancelling headphones will be provided to the participants.

Tidsramme |
---|---|---|
Change in Wechsler Test of Adult Reading (WTAR)
Tidsramme: Difference from baseline to end of chemotherapy (approximately 4 months, depending on individual treatment); difference from end of chemotherapy to 12 weeks post-chemotherapy
|
The WTAR is a measure that reliably estimates levels of intelligence by asking the subject to read aloud the words on an established reading list.
|
Difference from baseline to end of chemotherapy (approximately 4 months, depending on individual treatment); difference from end of chemotherapy to 12 weeks post-chemotherapy
|
Change in Processing Speed (PS)
Tidsramme: Difference from baseline to end of chemotherapy (approximately 4 months, depending on individual treatment); difference from end of chemotherapy to 12 weeks post-chemotherapy
|
1) The Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT), which assesses complex mental manipulation of verbally presented single digit numbers.
The task requires the participant to mentally add and verbally express the last two numbers presented.
There are 60 trials in each of the two sets of numbers that are presented at two different speeds; 2) Symbol-Digit Modality Test requires that the subject copies numbers that are paired with symbols within a specified time limit.
The coding subtest involves processing speed, short term visual memory, psychomotor speed, visual perception and visual scanning ability.
3) The Stroop Test has three parts to it: the first task requires the participant to respond to every word as quickly as possible that is presented on the computer screen.
The second task requires a response when the color word matches the meaning of the word.
The third task requires a response when the color of the word does not match the meaning of the word.

Change in Executive Functions
Tidsramme: Difference from baseline to end of chemotherapy (approximately 4 months, depending on individual treatment); difference from end of chemotherapy to 12 weeks post-chemotherapy
|
The Trail Making Test, Part A & B: are measures of visual search efficiency and set shifting while alternating between letters and numbers.
Additionally, the Verbal Fluency subtest of the Delis-Kaplan Executive Functioning Scale (D-KEFS) will be used to measure semantic and phonemic fluency through a task of word naming, where subjects are asked to list as many words as they can within 60-second time limit that begin with a specific letter (i.e., F, A, and S), and a task of category naming, where subjects are asked to list as many words as they can within 60-second time limit that fall within a specified category (i.e., animals and boy's names), respectfully.
This subtest also measures category switching ability via a task where subjects are asked to list as many words as they can within 60-second time that fall within two alternating categories (i.e., fruits/furniture).

Change in Working Memory and Attention
Tidsramme: Difference from baseline to end of chemotherapy (approximately 4 months, depending on individual treatment); difference from end of chemotherapy to 12 weeks post-chemotherapy
|
1) Digit-Span Task, this is a standardized measure of verbal working memory in which participants recall a string of numbers that are verbally presented.
2) The Continuous Performance subtest of the CNS Vital Signs neurocognitive battery.
The Continuous Performance test assesses sustained attention and reaction time to targets presented on the computer by requiring the participant to respond only when a specific designated letter is presented during a 5 minute trial.
3) The Shifting Attention subtest of the CNS- Vital Signs neurocognitive battery will be administered to assess the participant's ability to maintain attention while switching between sets of target.
4) Four-Parts Continuous performance subtest of the CNS Vital Signs neurocognitive battery, which is a measure of working memory and sustained attention.

The short form version of this test will be used.
The Visual Memory subtest of the CNS- Vital Signs neurocognitive battery will be administered to assess non-verbal memory of immediate and delayed recall.
