Brief Summary: The present randomized controlled trial has the main objective to study the effects of a videoconferenced occupational therapy program in preventing cancer and chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment and other health outcomes, as well as in improving quality of live and occupational performance of women undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.
Detailed Description: The chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment (also called chemobrain) has a great incidence among breast cancer population. However, the knowledge about effective interventions of supportive care is still inconsistent. Furthermore, the majority of programs targeted to this problem has been applied in survivorship, while the onset of cognitive impairment and the decline in quality of life occur during medical treatments. In this line, actual evidence suggests testing the effectiveness of interventions in a preventive setting in patients with breast cancer scheduled to receive neurotoxic chemotherapy. In addition, telehealth approaches have become a promising practice and increasingly more frequent among healthcare disciplines.

Our objective is to study the effects of a videoconferenced cognitive training in combination with cognitive-behavioral strategies to prevent or mitigate the cancer- and chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment in women with breast cancer who undergo this treatment, as well as to improve quality of life and allow an optimal adaptation to the occupational needs derived from medical treatment.

This study will use a two-arm, single blinded randomized clinical trial design. Eligible women will be randomized to one of the following groups: the experimental group that will receive the e-OTCAT program (12 weeks), or the control group that will receive and educational handbook and standard care. The study outcomes will be assessed after intervention and at 6-month follow-up post-randomization.

This study may contribute the need to include disciplines such as occupational therapy in the supportive care of cancer patients during the active phase of the disease, as well as the potential advantages provided by a telehealth approach related to economic, temporal and geographical barriers.
