Sleep study targets racism stress impact on insomnia treatment
NCT ID NCT07445529
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether racism-related stress affects how well a digital cognitive behavioral therapy program (Sleepio) works for insomnia in Black adults. One hundred participants will use the app for 6-10 weeks while researchers track their sleep and stress levels. The goal is to see if those with short sleep benefit less and whether stress plays a role.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTi) delivered via a digital program called Sleepio
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that digital CBT for insomnia works well for Black adults, even when they face racism-related stress.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with no control group, so results may not apply to everyone. The digital program may not work as well for those with very short sleep.
