Brief Summary:
The investigators will answer the question of whether treating insomnia using the mobile-app-based intervention of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) for cancer survivors ("iCANSleep") can improve symptoms of insomnia in Canadian cancer survivors compared to a waitlist control group. The investigators will recruit 146 people with insomnia who have completed cancer treatment at least 3 months prior to the study.
Detailed Description:
The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial of immediate treatment with the CBT-I app "iCANSleep" compared to a delayed treatment group with 146 cancer survivors who have completed primary treatment at least 3 months prior and meet DSM diagnostic criteria for insomnia. Participants who are randomized to the immediate treatment group will complete the 7-modules of the CBT-I treatment right away. Those randomized to the delayed treatment group will begin the intervention following an 8-week waiting period. The treatment group will complete assessments at baseline, mid-treatment, post-treatment, and 3-month follow-up. The delayed treatment group will complete an assessment at baseline, halfway through their wait at 4 weeks, and prior to beginning treatment at 8 weeks. They will also complete assessments at mid-treatment, post-treatment and 3-month follow-up. Insomnia severity will be analyzed using the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) as the primary outcome. Other measures will include fatigue, anxiety, depression, pain, work productivity, sleep beliefs, daytime impact of insomnia, and pre-sleep arousal.
The investigators hypothesize that the immediate treatment group will report significantly greater improvements in insomnia compared to the waitlist control group at post-treatment (primary endpoint). The investigators also hypothesize that these improvements will be maintained at 3-months follow-up (secondary endpoint).
