Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center
Summary
This study is being done to learn more about breast cancer patients' experiences with sleep changes during cancer treatment, identify possible reasons for poor sleep quality, and to find out how stress, social support, and living environment affect sleep.

II. Identify risk factors (sociodemographic, clinical treatment, social support, built environment) associated with sleep duration and sleep quality over time. III. Assess how sleep duration and quality affect premature biological aging, stress, and inflammatory markers in BC patients from treat…
