Have brain fog? Mayo & ASU study seeking breast cancer survivors

Have you completed breast cancer treatment but still experience lingering “brain fog,” trouble focusing, or mental fatigue?

Researchers at Mayo Clinic and Arizona State University are inviting women to participate in an online 10-week research study exploring a lifestyle program designed to support cognitive recovery after cancer treatment.

This nationwide research study, called RESTORE, looks at whether longer overnight fasting can help improve sleep and thinking (cognition) in breast cancer survivors. The study takes place online.

Who can take part
You may be able to take part if you:

• Are a woman age 18 or older
• Have been diagnosed with breast cancer
• Have completed chemotherapy (if you received it)
• Finished your last neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy at least 3 months ago
• You do not need to be a Mayo Clinic patient

What you will do
Participation is completely voluntary.

• The study lasts 10 weeks and is completed online
• Track when you start and stop eating for 14 days
• Be randomly placed into one of two groups for 8 weeks:
  • A nightly fasting group
  • A health education group
• Complete online Zoom sessions before and after the study to share health information

Compensation

• All participants can receive up to $75 in gift cards
