简要总结
Women with early stage breast cancer may experience difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep. If this occurs for more than 4 weeks, these participants may have chronic insomnia. Chronic insomnia can lead to difficulty coping with stress, changes in mood, increased use of medications for sleep and an overall decrease in quality of life.
The investigators have developed an internet-based website that is designed to help people manage symptoms typically experienced by breast cancer survivors, including insomnia, fatigue, pain and overall poor quality of life. The investigators want to learn whether this type of treatment can reduce chronic insomnia and improve the way subjects feel using both questionnaires and a special form of a wrist watch. This information may help the investigators better manage sleep difficulties in subjects who experience these symptoms after diagnosis of their breast cancer.

研究组 & 干预措施
PROSPECT
Participants who have received treatment for early stage breast cancer and who experience chronic insomnia as assessed by difficulty sleeping for >30 days with an insomnia severity index score of >14. Participants will complete baseline symptom questionnaires and actigraphy, then complete an internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy program (PROSPECT) for 6 weeks. Participants will then repeat questionnaires and actigraphy at 6 weeks and questionnaires at 12 weeks.
干预措施: PROSPECT (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Insomnia Severity Index
时间窗: 6 weeks
Insomnia will be measured through the use of a validated survey called the Insomnia Severity Index
次要结局
- Change in Sleep Disturbance as measured by Actigraphy(6 weeks)
