Digital Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia in Cancer Survivors: Protocol for a Pragmatic Clinical Trial

Our cancer trial will test the effects and acceptability of an accessible internet-delivered self-administered cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia digital intervention with clinician support, OncoSleep. This online program includes six interactive, personalized weekly sessions featuring evidence-based techniques targeting psychophysiological hyperarousal and maladaptive conditioning, tailored for cancer survivors. Research study procedures include screening for eligibility in the general population and randomization into one of two arms: the digital CBT-I program or a waitlist control group. Insomnia severity (primary outcome), fatigue, sleep diary outcomes, psychological distress, and quality of life (secondary outcomes) will be assessed at baseline and post-intervention.
