Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Prospective observational longitudinal cohort study (pilot study).
Patients undergoing standard chemotherapy treatment will be eligible for participation in this study.
In addition to their standard management, participants will undergo observations at three time points to identify any potential signs of chemotherapy-associated neurocognitive impairment (CANI).
These observations include:
- Neurocognitive Assessment (NCA), in the form of a one-hour standardised interview with a clinical neuropsychologist (see below); and
- Magnetic resonance imaging with quantitative susceptibility mapping (MRI-QSM) brain imaging.
The observations will be performed at baseline, at completion of chemotherapy, and then again at 6 months following completion of all therapy.

The 1-hour standardised NCA will contain the following validated assessment tools:
1) Test of Premorbid Function (TOPF), which will provide an overall estimate of the participant’s overall intelligence level. Number of years of education will be documented.
2) Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) will provide an indication of global cognitive functioning.
3) Cognition will be assessed using measures to evaluate motor speed (the Finger Tapping Test), auditory attention and working memory (Wechsler Memory Scale – Third Edition Digit Span), verbal learning and memory (Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test) and aspects of executive functioning including mental flexibility (Trail Making Test) and verbal generativity (Controlled Oral Word Association Test (COWAT).
4) Psychological variables will be evaluated through self-report questionnaires canvasing anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale), patient perception of quality of life – European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Scale (EORTC-QLQ-C30) and evaluation of subjective symptoms of fatigue (EORTC-QLQ-FA12).

An overall composite score will be tallied for the NCA at each Time Point.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 319343 0
Change in composite NCA Score between baseline and following completion of consolidation chemotherapy (based on one-hour interview with clinical neuropsychologist using methods detailed in Step 3)
Timepoint [1] 319343 0
The primary outcome will be assessed following the completion of the final time point by the final study participant (ie when all study data has been collected).

It is expected that each participant will have completed all study assessments within 9-12 months.
Secondary outcome [1] 367845 0
1., Change in NCA Score between completion of consolidation chemotherapy and six-month follow-up (based on one-hour interview with clinical neuropsychologist using methods detailed in Step 3)
Timepoint [1] 367845 0
All outcomes will be after the assessed following the completion of the final time point (6 months post final treatment) for all participants.

It is expected that each participant will have completed all study assessments within 9-12 months.
Secondary outcome [2] 367925 0
2. Worst score in any NCA target area between baseline, completion of consolidation chemotherapy, and six-month follow-up.
(target areas detailed in Step 3; assessment performed based on one-hour interview with clinical neuropsychologist using methods detailed in Step 3)
Timepoint [2] 367925 0
All outcomes will be after the assessed following the completion of the final time point (6 months post final treatment) for all participants.
Secondary outcome [3] 367926 0
3. Change in brain iron deposition pattern on MRI-QSM imaging between baseline, post consolidation chemotherapy, and six months’ follow-up
Timepoint [3] 367926 0
All outcomes will be after the assessed following the completion of the final time point (6 months post final treatment) for all participants.
