Brief Summary:
This is a randomized pilot trial to test the feasibility and acceptability (primary outcomes) of a virtual cognitive behavioral program for insomnia for survivors of various cancer types. Secondary outcomes are to examine the preliminary effects on reducing insomnia severity from baseline to post-intervention.
Detailed Description:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), is an evidenced-based insomnia program that is recommended by the American College of Physicians and can be delivered using session-by-session treatment manuals.
Among cancer survivors, CBT-I has only yielded small-to-moderate sized improvements in several aspects of sleep, including sleep efficiency, sleep onset latency, and wake after sleep onset as compared with inactive control conditions. Moreover, systematic reviews of CBT-I with cancer survivors have found high rates of attrition and low attendance. Thus, while CBT-I for cancer survivors is promising, further adaptation is needed to demonstrate greater feasibility and larger effects. Additionally, CBT-I is traditionally delivered in-person, which is not feasible for many cancer survivors. Barriers include time limitations, travel, and illness burden constraints, as well as a paucity of trained CBT-I providers. Telehealth delivery of CBT-I is an innovative approach to address these barriers to care and enhance uptake.
The intervention being tested in this study was informed by a 4-10 session CBT-I protocol and adapted based on interviews the investigators conducted with cancer survivors with insomnia to learn about their sleep-related challenges, suggestions, and preferences for intervention delivery, as well as a systematic review and meta-analysis the investigators published in Sleep Medicine Reviews in 2020.
The research study procedures include screening for eligibility and randomization into 1 of 2 study arms: the Adapted Virtual Intervention Group or a Control Group (Enhanced Usual Care; referral for behavioral sleep medicine and sleep hygiene handout). Participants will be in this research study for approximately 2 months. It is expected that about 40 people will take part in this research study.
