How far along is this research?
This is a trial that is enrolling or has been updated. It is not a finding yet.
No phase is listed for this study, so it is still a test and not care you can get from your own doctor.
Status: Not yet recruiting. It has not opened yet. Ask your care team to watch for it if it looks like a fit.

The short version
This study is testing whether an online training program can help children with a brain tumor with attention, memory, and thinking speed.
Who this trial is for. This trial is for children with a primary brain tumor, during and after active cancer treatment. It is testing an online computerized training program meant to help with processing speed, attention, and working memory.
Where it stands. This trial has not reported results. It is checking whether the training can be given to these children, whether children and caregivers find it acceptable, and whether it improves thinking skills. Children would use the program for about 15 minutes per day, 5 days a week, for 8 weeks, with weekly check-ins with a cognitive coach and testing before and after. There is no comparison group. The answers are not in yet.
What this means, and what it doesn't
What it could mean: If your child has a primary brain tumor and is in or past active cancer treatment, you could ask their care team about this study. It is a training program done on a computer, not a drug. Taking part would mean daily practice and testing before and after.
What it doesn't mean: This does not mean the training is proven to help. A trial is a test, not treatment that is known to work. Joining a trial is not a guarantee that a child will get better. This is not a cure, and no one can promise a spot in the study.
