Summary
This trial tests if a new online therapy (C-SMART) helps people with brain cancer and mild memory problems.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with a glioma brain tumor who have finished radiation therapy at least a month ago. They should be able to perform daily activities well (KPS score ≥ 80), speak English, and show some cognitive decline compared to before their illness. People can't join if they can't attend online sessions, understand the study, or have severe sleep problems.
What is being tested?
The C-SMART program is being tested in this study. It's delivered via telehealth and combines cognitive strategies, mindfulness techniques, and rehabilitation therapy aimed at helping patients with mild neurocognitive disorders due to gliomas.
What are the potential side effects?
Since C-SMART involves non-invasive therapies like cognitive exercises and mindfulness training rather than drugs or surgery, significant side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience fatigue or emotional discomfort.
