Original description
The goal of the study is to investigate whether treating insomnia using app-based cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) can improve cognitive impairment in breast cancer survivors compared to an active control group (sleep hygiene education). The study will also explore if CBT-I is associated with changes in the brain and in inflammation. The investigators will recruit approximately 84 participants with insomnia and cognitive impairment who have completed breast cancer treatment within 1-5 years.Read full original descriptionShow less
