Telematic Cognitive Training and Mindfulness in Pediatric Patients After CAR-T Cell Therapy, Single Hematopoietic Allogeneic Transplant or Chemotherapy
Sponsor: Hospital Universitario La Paz
Summary
This randomized controlled clinical trial evaluates neurocognitive, biopsychological, and brain connectome outcomes in children and adolescents with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who have previously received Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell therapy (CAR T-cell therapy), chemotherapy, and/or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Participants will receive a multimodal, telematic psychological intervention combining digital cognitive training and an adapted mindfulness-based emotional regulation program. Outcomes will be compared with a waitlist control group and intervention sequences will be counterbalanced: (1) cognitive training followed by mindfulness; and (2) mindfulness followed by cognitive training. Neurocognitive performance, emotional-behavioral functioning, executive functioning and EEG-based functional connectivity will be assessed at baseline, post-intervention and at 6 months follow-up.
