Brief Title: CHEmotherapy and Cognitive Deterioration in Patients With Operable Breast Cancer: Impact of Cognitive Rehabilitation (CHEMOFOG)
Official Title: CHEMioterapia e Deterioramento cOgnitivo Nelle Pazienti aFfette da Carcinoma Mammario
Study ID: NCT06435559
Brief Summary: An interventional, non-pharmacological, monocentric study evaluating the effectiveness of cognitive rehabilitation in counteracting chemotherapy-induced cognitive impairment (CRCI) in women with operable breast cancer treated with neo-adjuvant therapy and/ or adjuvant therapy.
Detailed Description: This interventional, non-pharmacological, monocentric study examines the effectiveness of cognitive rehabilitation in counteracting CRCI in women with operable breast cancer treated with neo-adjuvant therapy and/ or adjuvant therapy. A total of 128 patients will be randomized 1:1 into two groups: * Experimental group, which will participate in a cognitive rehabilitation program using Neurotablet® and paper and pencil exercises. To evaluate the efficacy of the cognitive rehabilitation program, neurocognitive evaluations will be performed. * Control group, which will only carry out neuropsychological assessments. Neuropsychological evaluations will be conducted before the start of chemotherapy (T0), 6 months (T1) and 12 months (T2) after the start of chemotherapy. Neuropsychological evaluations will include tests to analyze the main cognitive domains of memory, attention, executive functions and learning.
