MIND-BC Trial Summary
This trial looks at how the MIND diet (high in anti-inflammatory nutrients, low in brain-unhealthy foods) may help reduce memory and brain function decline in women with breast cancer after chemotherapy.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking, post-menopausal women with Stage II-IV hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. They must be about to start systemic therapies like chemotherapy within +/- 4 weeks and cannot have a history of cognitive impairments or conditions such as dementia or stroke. Women already following the MIND diet closely or those unable to consume its foods are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if the MIND Diet, rich in anti-inflammatory nutrients and low in unhealthy foods, can protect brain function during cancer treatment. Participants will either follow this special diet or receive general health education (GHC), randomly assigned to see which method better supports cognitive functions.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves dietary changes rather than medication, side effects may include digestive adjustments due to new food types but are generally expected to be minimal compared to drug interventions.
