Cognitive impairment in survivors of prostate cancer: combining cognitive and physical activity for a brain fog fix.
Goal
In this project, researchers want to investigate physical (cycling) with cognitive training compared to doing the physical or cognitive training alone, to see if it helps improve fatigue, memory, and thinking among men receiving hormone treatment. This research project will provide the needed information to understand the benefits of physical and cognitive training to reduce cognitive impairment “brain fog”. Information will be gained on how participants engage with the interventions, as well as whether or not they think this would be an intervention to complement existing cancer care. This information will inform the research team whether a larger trial should be undertaken.
