Effects of sleep disturbances and circadian rhythms modifications on cognition in breast cancer women before and after adjuvant chemotherapy: the ICANSLEEP-1 protocol.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Many patients treated for breast cancer (BC) complain about cognitive difficulties affecting their daily lives. Recently, sleep disturbances and circadian rhythm disruptions have been brought to the fore as potential contributors to cognitive difficulties in patients with BC. Yet, studies on these factors as well as their neural correlates are scarce. The purpose of the ICANSLEEP-1 (Impact of SLEEP disturbances in CANcer) study is to characterize sleep using polysomnography and its relationship with the evolution of cognitive functioning at both the behavioral and the neuroanatomical levels across treatment in BC patients treated or not with adjuvant chemotherapy.

Methods

ICANSLEEP-1 is a longitudinal study including BC patients treated with adjuvant chemotherapy
