Summary

The primary aim of the study is - in a prospective controlled design - to examine whether treatment-induced decreases in testosterone acts as a mechanism of cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) in testicular and prostate cancer patients.

Secondary aims are 1) to explore whether decreases in testosterone interacts with increasing age to cause more severe CRCI in older patients, 2) to explore underlying neurophysiological (brain morphology) mechanisms of CRCI, and 3) to evaluate selected genetic variants as possible moderators of CRCI.
