REPAIR Sleep Study
120 participantsStarted 2026-07
Plain-language summary
The goal of this study is to learn whether a videoconference-delivered CBT-I program (REPAIR Sleep) can improve sleep and psychological well-being in caregiver-PLwD dyads. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does REPAIR Sleep improve insomnia severity and other sleep outcomes?
* Does REPAIR Sleep improve psychological outcomes such as mood, stress, and quality of life? Researchers will compare REPAIR Sleep with Healthy Living to see whether REPAIR Sleep leads to greater improvements.
Participants will:
* Attend five weekly virtual sessions
* Complete sleep diaries and questionnaires
* Wear an actigraphy device
* Complete follow-up assessments over 9 months

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1This trial is focused on improving sleep and measuring changes in insomnia severity — how might addressing sleep problems actually connect to my cognitive symptoms or Alzheimer's risk, and is that something my care team thinks is worth prioritizing right now?
2Since this trial isn't recruiting yet, how long might I realistically need to wait before I could even apply, and in the meantime, are there proven treatments for insomnia that I should already be trying?
3The trial is listed as Phase NA, which can mean it's more of a behavioral or device-based study rather than a drug trial — can you help me understand what kind of intervention is likely being tested here, and what that would mean for my day-to-day participation?
4Given that the study is measuring insomnia severity as its main outcome, does that mean the researchers are still trying to establish whether the treatment works at all, or is this looking at how it works for people with cognitive concerns specifically?
5Would you recommend I pursue this trial over, or alongside, standard approaches for managing cognition and sleep — and are there other studies or treatments already available that have more evidence behind them for someone in my situation?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
