Innovation in the Treatment of Insomnia in Breast Cancer Survivors

In this issue of the Journal, Zachariae et al. present a randomized controlled trial among breast cancer survivors with insomnia, comparing an Internet‐delivered cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (iCBT‐I) with a waitlist control (1). Outcomes were assessed via the Internet, including insomnia severity, sleep quality, and fatigue, as well as sleep diaries over two weeks. The active intervention, iCBT-I, showed robust improvements in insomnia severity and sleep quality, and also reduced daytime symptoms of fatigue, with effects maintained over a six-week follow-up.
