Abstract
Old age and cumulative chemotherapy cycles were the main influential factors for objectively confirmed cognitive decline, and fatigue was the most common predictor of self-reported cognitive decline. Depression was one of the predictors of perceived cognitive decline, but it was not significant for objectively measured cognitive function. Thus, treatment-related factors such as fatigue had a greater impact on cognitive decline than psychological factors.
