Clinical Trial Summary

RATIONALE: Sleep disorder counseling may reduce fatigue and insomnia as well as improve the well-being and quality of life of cancer survivors. Armodafinil may help relieve insomnia and fatigue in patients with cancer after chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well cognitive behavioral therapy with or without armodafinil works in treating cancer survivors with insomnia and fatigue after chemotherapy.


Clinical Trial Description

Detailed DescriptionOBJECTIVES:

I. To determine if one or more of the intervention strategies (i.e., CBT-I, armodafinil, or both), when compared to a placebo only group, reduce insomnia in cancer patients following the conclusion of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy.

II. To determine if one or more of the intervention strategies (i.e, CBT-I, armodafinil, or both), when compared to a placebo only group, reduce fatigue in cancer patients following the conclusion of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy.

III. To determine if one or more of the intervention strategies (i.e., CBT-I, armodafinil, or both), when compared to a placebo only group, improve QOL in cancer patients following the conclusion of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 4 treatment arms (cognitive behavioral therapy, armodafinil, both, or neither).

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 30 days. ;
