This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing EndeavorRx, a video game approved by the FDA that trains attention and focus skills. The game was designed for children with attention problems, but researchers want to see if it can also help young cancer survivors who have trouble concentrating after their treatment ends. The study will compare children who play the game to children who use a different educational computer program, to see which helps more.
Many children who survive leukemia or brain tumors experience lasting problems with attention, memory, and focus—even years after treatment ends. These problems can make school, friendships, and everyday life harder. Right now, there are very few non-medication options to help with these cognitive side effects, so researchers are testing whether this treatment might make a real difference.

If you're selected, you'll be randomly assigned to either play EndeavorRx or use a different educational program at home. Either way, you'll spend about 25–30 minutes per day, 5 days a week, for 4 weeks playing on a computer or tablet. Before and after the month of training, you'll come in for tests to check your attention and focus, and your parent will fill out some forms about how you're doing.
