1

Persistent CRCD is defined as 3.7+ points decline on the FACT-Cog Perceived Cognitive Impairment (PCI) scale from pre-systemic therapy baseline to 12 months, with persistence to 24-months

2

Higher scores indicate worse performance

NAB = Neuropsychological Assessment Battery; PCI – Perceived Cognitive Impairment; TIADL = Timed Instrumental Activities of Daily Living; FACIT = Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy; COWAT = Controlled Oral Word Association Test; CRCD=cancer-related cognitive decline
