This descriptive, cross-sectional study will evaulate and fully characterize factors associated with cognitive dysfunction in Breast Cancer (BCS) and Colorectal Cancer (CRC) survivors that have cognitive concerns, and factors associated with psychoneurological symptom cluster in BCS and CRC survivors.
Primary Aim: To identify demographic factors (age and education), medical and cancer treatment-related factors (comorbidities and treatment type), psychosocial factors (perceived stress, affect, optimism, coping, emotional support), cancer-related symptoms (pain, depression, anxiety, fatigue and sleep disturbance), and genetic factors (APOE, COMT, BDNF) associated with the level of subjective or the level of objective cognitive dysfunction in breast cancer and colorectal cancer survivors.
Secondary Aim: To identify demographic factors (age and education), medical and cancer treatment-related factors (comorbidities and treatment type), psychosocial factors (perceived stress, affect, optimism, coping, emotional support), and genetic factors (APOE, COMT, BDNF) associated with psychoneurological symptom cluster using either subjective or objective cognitive dysfunction in breast cancer and colorectal cancer survivors.

A total of 465 breast and colorectal cancer patients will be recruited for this study. Breast and colorectal cancer survivors.
The eligibility checklist is a self-report questionnaire. Participants will be asked to self-identify that they are 21 years of age or older, had been diagnosed with breast or colorectal cancer excluding Stage IV (those without distant metastasis) and have completed treatment (adjuvant or neo-adjuvant) at least 6 months prior to completing the survey. In addition, as part of the eligibility checklist, participants will need to self-rate that they have cognitive concerns (select yes).

The NIH NINR lab will run genome-wide sequencing per an approved and standardized protocol. In this study, we will focus on 3 genetic SNP variants of BDNF, APOE, and COMT (described previously). After final batch analyses, only outcome data with the unique identification numbers will be transferred via secure server to be linked back with the other survey and neuropsychological data.
