Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Insomnia is common in Breast cancer patients during adjuvant therapy with aromatase inhibitor.

However it is difficult to establish whether it is due to the knowledge of the disease or the treatment administred.

The investigators designed a cohort study in which questionnaires for the assessment of sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Insomnia Severity Index), anxiety (State and Trait Anxiety Inventory), depression (Beck Depression Inventory), for the quality of life in general (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy) and for the evaluation of RLS (Restless Legs Syndrome Rating Scale) will be prospectively administered to patients with early breast cancer at baseline and during adjuvant treatment with aromatase inhibitors.

As secondary aims the investigators will also evaluate dietary and lifes' factors, born turn over and BMI.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. The number of participants who suffer from insomnia [24 months]

      We use some validated questionnaires to measure this item

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. The number of participants who suffer from anxiety and depression [24 months]

      We use some validated questionnaires to measure this item

    2. The number of participants who suffer from Restless [24 months]

      We use some validated questionnaires to measure this item

    3. Correlating the onset of restless with anxiety, depression and insomnia [24 months]

      We analyse correlation into the database

    4. Describe changes in lean body mass, fat mass, bone mineral density during treatment [24 months]

      We analyse this items after DEXA

    5. The number of participants with abnormal level of vitamin d [24 months]

      We asses participants with levels of vitamin out of range

    6. Correlate the changes in body composition with circulating levels of vitamin D [24 months]

      We use statistic software to asses changes

    7. Number of fracture and their correlation with the density bone mineral and other parameters of body composition [24 months]

      We use statistic software to asses correlation
