NCT06706453
Background This is a survey to understand sleep in the context of medical trainees (on call) and the participants knowledge about the relevance of sleep, shiftwork, and the impact that sleep may have on their working performance. The survey has been developed by sleep experts from America, Europe, and Africa, in collaboration with the World Sleep Society. It should take about 30-40 minutes to complete. The survey will focus on three different aspects, complemented by two standard questionnaires: 1. Demographics and Place of Work 2. Basic Knowledge and Perception of Sleep 3. Sleep Routine 4. Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Insomnia Sleep Inventory
NCT07481903
This clinical trial aims to assess whether electroacupuncture (EA) can alleviate the psychoneurological symptom cluster (including pain, fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, depression and subjective cognitive decline) in breast cancer survivors, and to evaluate the safety of this therapy. Researchers will conduct a randomized controlled trial of electroacupuncture (EA) as compared to sham electroacupuncture (SA) in breast cancer survivors with the psychoneurological symptom cluster who are currently being treated with endocrine therapy. Participants will receive 16 treatments over 8 weeks. The EA group will receive true acupuncture with continuous wave stimulation (2Hz, intensity as tolerated) administered for 30 minutes per session. The SA group will receive sham acupuncture using blunt (non-penetrating) needles that contact the skin without penetration, along with a 30-second transient device activation instead of the 30-minute continuous stimulation. Treatment outcomes for pain, fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, depression and subjective cognitive function will be assessed. The primary outcome is response rate of the psychoneurological symptom cluster after 8 weeks of treatment. Secondary outcomes include changes from baseline in the scores of each of the six psychoneurological symptoms.
NCT06032377
The goal of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to assess a novel cognitive-behavioral program for sleep and mental health using a multidomain web platform (eCBTi+) in participants with insomnia and subjective cognitive complaint. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Whether the eCBTi+ intervention improves sleep (subjective: Insomnia severity index \[ISI\], objective: EEG-based sleep efficiency) sleep and mental health (Geriatric Anxiety Index \[GAI\] and Geriatric Depression Scale \[GDS\]) compared to the control intervention * Whether the eCBTi+ intervention improves cognitive abilities (subjective: Cognitive Failure Questionnaire \[CFQ\], objective: CANTAB executive functions composite score) compared to the control intervention
NCT07473011
Many spa patients report falling asleep more easily, experiencing fewer nighttime awakenings, and feeling more refreshed upon waking after their treatment. However, these effects have never been formally evaluated in a scientific study. The aim of this study is therefore to measure precisely the impact of the spa treatment on the severity of insomnia. The study does not modify usual care. Participants follow their prescribed spa treatment as planned. They are simply asked to complete questionnaires: * before the start of the treatment * at the end of the 18-day program * and 2 months later The main questionnaire assesses the severity of insomnia. Additional questionnaires evaluate sleep quality, fatigue, pain, anxiety, stress, and quality of life.
NCT06807086
This project is a single center, prospective randomized controlled trial (N=198) primarily evaluating the efficacy of the Survivorship Sleep Program vs. Enhanced Usual Care on insomnia severity among cancer survivors. The investigators will also examine secondary outcomes associated with cancer-related insomnia including subjective and objective sleep measures (i.e., sleep diaries, actigraphy), emotional distress, fatigue, and use of sleep medications. Notably, most CBT-I trials with cancer survivors who have completed primary treatment with curative intent (i.e., curvivors) but not those in treatment or living with metastatic cancer (i.e., metavivors). To enhance generalizability, this RCT will stratify enrollment by survivorship phase (1:1:1). This project in strengthened by partnerships with community organizations (SurvivorJourneys and Ellie Fund) and use of both quantitative (i.e., surveys, actigraphy) and qualitative methods (i.e., interviews) to inform considerations for future implementation. Collectively, the proposed project will yield multiple deliverables to innovate cancer survivorship care, namely an efficacious, virtually delivered intervention addressing chronic insomnia, one of the most deleterious concerns among the growing population of cancer survivors in the US. Findings will inform a future effectiveness trial and the expansion of the synchronous delivery of CBT-I to survivors across different phases of cancer survivorship.
NCT06073990
This study aims to investigate whether a four-week BBTi program can effectively improve chronic insomnia and reduce overall stress in middle-aged and elderly individuals.
NCT06181643
The overall goal of this project is to conduct a factorial, randomized controlled trial to optimize synchronous, virtual delivery of CBT-I for cancer survivors. The proposed project will yield multiple deliverables to innovate cancer survivorship care, chiefly an optimized, scalable, virtually-delivered intervention that addresses chronic insomnia, one of the most deleterious concerns among the growing demographic of cancer survivors in the U.S. Findings will inform future considerations for delivering CBT-I to cancer survivors.
NCT07435740
This study will evaluate the efficacy of a structured parent-mediated behavioral intervention called Sleep Parent Treatment (SPT) for insomnia in autistic children ages 3 to 7 years 11 months, compared to another behavioral intervention called Sleep Parent Education (SPE). Eligible children will be randomly assigned to either the SPT or SPE intervention for 10 weeks.
NCT07429578
This is an open-label pilot clinical trial to evaluate the effects of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) in adults diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and chronic primary insomnia. The study will involve 30 participants who will receive 20 sessions of tACS over four weeks. The stimulation will be delivered at 15 mA and 77.5 Hz using the Nexalin device. The main goal is to assess improvements in anxiety and sleep quality. Results from this study will provide preliminary evidence for future randomized controlled trials.
NCT05780814
The investigators propose a randomized controlled clinical trial in 250 women with a history of early stage breast cancer who are overweight or obese with insomnia to test whether a brief, cognitive-behavioral intervention for insomnia (CBT-I) prior to behavioral weight loss (CBT-I+BWL) is superior to a sleep education control (EDU) condition followed by behavioral weight loss (EDU+BWL). The investigators will measure outcomes at baseline, 8 weeks (after completing CBT-I or EDU and prior to BWL), and at 3, 6, and 12 months.
NCT06348082
The purpose of this study is to achieve health and healthcare equity by implementing an equity-focused, mindfulness-based sleep intervention to reduce stress and sleep deficiency-related cardiometabolic disease burden in Black women.
NCT07417813
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of lemborexant (a new dual orexin receptor antagonist) in the treatment of patients with mental disorders complicated with insomnia. The subjects are patients aged 18 years and above, who meet the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for mental disorders and have an Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) score ≥11. They will receive lemborexant treatment for 8 weeks, with follow-up to observe the improvement of insomnia symptoms and adverse events, so as to provide real-world evidence for the clinical optimization of treatment regimens for insomnia comorbid with psychiatric disorders.
NCT07405775
This pilot randomised, open-label, parallel-group controlled trial will evaluate the feasibility, acceptability and effects of a psychologist-supported digital behavioural therapy for insomnia (dBTi) compared to a wait-listed active control (digital sleep health education) in young people aged 16-24 years with insomnia symptoms. The primary objectives are to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a full-scale trial by assessing recruitment, consent and randomisation rates, intervention uptake, and data completeness. Secondary objectives include exploring treatment effects on insomnia severity (Insomnia Severity Index), sleep diary metrics, sleep quality, fatigue, and mood (depression and anxiety symptoms). Post-intervention interviews will assess participant experience and acceptability. Results will inform the design of a larger randomised controlled trial.
NCT07392177
This research project aims to better understand the neurobiological mechanistic underpinnings of insomnia disorder. The main question is whether cortical hyperarousal in individuals with insomnia disorder, measured by electroencephalograhic (EEG) infraslow oscillation coupling of sigma power during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and theta power during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, is related to locus coeruleus activity.
NCT07272863
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effects of a telephone-delivered Brief Behavioral Treatment Insomnia (BBTI) versus a Brief Mindfulness Treatment (BMT) on cognitive and sleep outcomes in older adults with HIV. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the effects of BBTI vs BMT on self-reported and observed sleep outcomes in older adults with HIV and insomnia up to 1-year post-intervention? What are the effects of BBTI vs BMT on self-reported and observed cognitive comes in older adults with HIV and insomnia up to 1-year post-intervention? What is the association between Alzheimer's Disease biomarkers and sleep and cognitive outcomes in older adults with HIV receiving BBTI vs BMT? Participants will: * Complete 4 weeks of telephone-delivered BBTI or BMT * Attend baseline, post-intervention, and 1-year post in-person visits for sleep and cognitive assessments * Have blood collected at all three time points
NCT06392789
This clinical trial evaluates the effect of conversational agent, Cecebot, on improving insomnia in stage I-III breast cancer survivors. Sleep disturbance ranks among the top concerns reported by breast cancer survivors and is associated with poor quality of life. Many breast cancer survivors also have decreased physical activity, which may also have a negative impact on sleep and quality of life. Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTi) and physical activity interventions have individually been reported to improve sleep and to have a positive impact on quality of life. Cecebot is a personalized short messaging service (SMS)-based behavioral intervention that combines CBTi and physical activity strategies that may improve sleep for breast cancer survivors.
NCT00488072
Primary objective: This is a preliminary study to determine if Mirtazapine in comparison to placebo will improve appetite in advanced cancer patients with anorexia and weight loss. An improvement of appetite is defined as a decrease of 2 in the appetite score from baseline on the Edmonton Symptom Assessment Scale (ESAS) at day 15 (+/-3 days). Secondary objective-A: To determine if Mirtazapine in comparison to placebo will improve insomnia ( as measured by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) on day 15 ( +/- 3 days), and day 29 ( +/- 3 days) Secondary objective - B: To determine if Mirtazapine in comparison to placebo will improve other common symptoms such as pain, nausea and fatigue( as measured by ESAS), depression and anxiety ( as measured by Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale), and quality of life ( as measured by Functional Assessment of Anorexia/Cachexia Therapy ) in advanced cancer patients with anorexia/cachexia, on days 15 (+/-3 days), and 29 (+/-3 days) Other Objectives: To provide exploratory data on the effects of Mirtazapine on weight gain, and preservation/gain lean muscle mass ( anthropometric measurements and Bioelectric Impedance), on days 15 (+/-3 days), and 29 (+/-3 days). To provide exploratory data on the effects of a Mirtazapine dose increase to 30 mg on decreased side effects of drug and increased appetite on day 29 (+/-3 days).
NCT07028697
The purpose of this phase 3 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Daridorexant compared to in participants with insomnia disorder.
NCT07337369
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether culturally adapted versions of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for insomnia (CBTi) can reduce insomnia severity and improve sleep and mood outcomes in Arab adults with insomnia. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does culturally adapted CBTi (surface-level or surface + deep-level adaptations) reduce insomnia severity compared to a wait-list control condition? Are there differences in treatment efficacy between surface-level adaptations and combined surface + deep-level cultural adaptations of CBTi? Researchers will compare surface-level adapted CBTi, surface + deep-level adapted CBTi, and a wait-list control group to see if culturally adapted CBTi improves insomnia symptoms, sleep parameters, dysfunctional beliefs about sleep, anxiety, depression, and fatigue. Participants will: Be randomly assigned to one of three groups: surface-level adapted CBTi, surface + deep-level adapted CBTi, or a wait-list control Receive a culturally adapted CBTi intervention or remain on a wait-list during the study period Complete self-report questionnaires assessing insomnia severity, sleep beliefs, mood, and fatigue Complete sleep diaries at multiple time points across the study duration
NCT05663034
This study is a prospective two-arm, single blind randomized controlled trial design to compare the clinical effectiveness of telemedicine-delivered, 6-session, standardized cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) and mindfulness-based treatment for insomnia (MBTI) in treating insomnia symptoms and ameliorating depressive symptoms in persons with mild to moderate TBI and comorbid Post-Traumatic Stress Symptoms (PTSS) and insomnia symptoms in a 360 patients. Participants will undergo assessment (psychosocial questionnaires, neurocognitive testing, sleep monitoring) at baseline, at the end of treatment, and at 2-, 6- and 12-weeks post-treatment. The primary outcome is sleep as measured by the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI).
