About this study

Official title: Early Behavioral Intervention in BMT Recipients With Sleep Disturbance: Assessing Its Impact on Quality of Life, Fatigue and Cognitive Function

This pilot clinical trial studies early brief behavioral intervention in treating sleep disturbance and improving quality of life in patients undergoing bone marrow transplant (BMT). A brief behavioral intervention may reduce symptoms of insomnia and fatigue and improve quality of life and cognitive function in patients undergoing BMT

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To provide preliminary data on the feasibility and efficacy of brief behavioral treatment for insomnia (BBT-I) on insomnia in hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To provide preliminary data on the influence of BBT-I on cancer-related fatigue (CRF) and cognitive status in BMT recipients.

II. To provide preliminary data on the influence of BBT-I on quality-of-life (QOL) in BMT recipients.

OUTLINE:

Patients complete the BBT-I, comprising the following modules: 1) "What to expect" in terms of fatigue and insomnia as it occurs with cancer and cancer treatment; 2) A review of the Spielman Model of insomnia; 3) A discussion (based on the Spielman Model) regarding how insomnia and fatigue may co-occur and interact in the context of cancer and cancer treatment; 4) An introduction to the concept and practice of Stimulus Control Therapy; 5) An introduction to Sleep Scheduling Specifically modified for cancer patients; 6) Sleep Compression; and 7) Concomitant Medications and Substance Use.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 1 month.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Feasibility and efficacy of BBT-I on insomnia in HCT recipients as calculated by means, standard deviations and effect sizes on the Insomnia Severity Inventory (ISI) total score variable

    The analysis will use longitudinal models with time as predictor and insomnia severity (ISI total score) as the dependent variable.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Feasibility and efficacy of BBT-I on insomnia in HCT recipients as calculated by means, standard deviations and effect sizes on the ISI variable

    The analysis will use longitudinal models with time as predictor and insomnia severity (ISI total score) as the dependent variable.

    Measured: 6 weeks post-intervention

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Influence of BBT-I on CRF and cognitive status in BMT recipients

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Influence of BBT-I on CRF and cognitive status in BMT recipients

    Measured: 6 weeks post-intervention

  3. Influence of BBT-I on QOL in BMT recipients

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Influence of BBT-I on QOL in BMT recipients

    Measured: 6 weeks post-intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing quality-of-life assessment, questionnaire administration and management of therapy complications in people with Cognition Disorders and Fatigue, run by Stanford University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Feasibility and efficacy of BBT-I on insomnia in HCT recipients as calculated by means, standard deviations and effect sizes on the Insomnia Severity Inventory (ISI) total score variable (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Jun 2014.
