Pain, fatigue, and sleep disturbance commonly co-occur in patients receiving treatment for advanced cancer. ⋯ Findings suggest that the CB intervention may be an efficacious approach to treating the pain, fatigue, and sleep disturbance symptom cluster. Future research is planned to confirm efficacy and test mediators and moderators of intervention effects.
