A Pilot Sleep Intervention to Improve Outcomes Among Women at High Risk of Breast Cancer

Participants are asked to participate in a research study of the effect of a sleep
intervention on improving sleep habits and reducing their risk of breast cancer.

Participants are asked to participate in this research study because they have been
identified as being at higher than average risk of developing breast cancer.

The purpose of this study is to compare women who get a sleep intervention to women who do
not get a sleep intervention. This study team will compare these two groups of women to see
if the sleep intervention improves their sleep and if it lowers markers of inflammation that
have been associated with an increased risk of breast cancer.

Objective 1: To test the effectiveness of the GO! To Sleep program at improving the sleep
duration and sleep quality in women at high risk of breast cancer.

Objective 2: To test the effectiveness of improvements in sleep quality and/or duration due
to the GO! To Sleep program on biomarkers of inflammation in women at high risk of breast
cancer.

Objective 3: To evaluate the effectiveness of improvements in health-related quality of life
after the GO! To Sleep in women at high risk of breast cancer.
