Clinical Investigation of the Effects of Semiconductor Embedded Therapeutic Garments on Cancer-related Cognitive Impairment in Breast and Gynecological Cancer Patients
NCT07173101 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of a wearing semiconductor embedded headband for cancer-related cognitive impairment in patients with breast or gynecological cancers. The study will also test the safety and effectiveness of using a semiconductor embedded headband by using a cross-over study design. The study will consist of the following phases: * Phase 1: Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive a headband with an active semiconductor or they will receive a sham headband with no semiconductor. They will wear the assigned headband for 18 hours a day for 3 weeks. * Washout Period: After the first 3-week phase, there will be a 2-week "washout" period. During this time, participants will not wear either headband to allow time for the potential treatment effects to clear from their body. * Phase 2: After the washout period, participants will switch to the other headband they were previously not receiving. They will wear this assigned headband for 18 hours a day for 3 weeks.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07173101
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07173101 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as Phase 2, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 50 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Utah, which has 686 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 3 conditions, with Breast Cancer appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Semiconductor embedded headband is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT07173101 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Utah. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
