Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study of the Effect of Armodafinil Treatment in Healthy Subjects With Excessive Sleepiness Associated With Jet Lag Disorder (NCT NCT00758498)

NCT ID: NCT00758498

Last Updated: 2013-07-19

Results Overview

MSLT is an assessment that measures likelihood of falling asleep. Mean Sleep Latency measures the time to fall asleep. On Treatment Days 1 and 2 the subject was instructed on 4 occasions to attempt to fall asleep. Each MSLT nap continued until 3 consecutive 30-second epochs of stage 1 sleep were reached, or any 30 second epoch of stage 2, 3, 4 or rapid eye movement sleep was reached. Each nap was terminated after 20 minutes if no sleep occured. Average sleep latency for the 4 naps was tabulated across days 1 and 2. Sleep latency was measured from lights out to first epoch scored as sleep.

Participant Flow

4 centers in the United States (US; origination study centers) and 3 centers in France (destination study centers). First participant enrolled: September 2008 / Last participant last visit: February 2009

Study consisted of a 1 to 8 week screening period, a 3-day double blind treatment period, and a 7-day follow-up period. 1298 subjects were screened, 431 subjects met entry criteria in the US; 4 subjects were ineligible upon arrival in France (due to AEs), and 1 subject randomized to placebo did not have any post-baseline efficacy assessments.

The PGI-S rating scale is the patient's assessment of their general condition. The subject rates their overall condition according to the 7 following categories: 1=normal (no sign of illness), 2=borderline ill, 3=mildly ill, 4=moderately ill, 5=markedly ill, 6=severely ill, and 7=among the most extremely ill. The term "ill" refers here to any symptoms of jet lag and overall feeling. Symptoms may include sleepiness, irritability, malaise, gastrointestinal disturbance, and level of performance. The average of PGI-S ratings across days 1 and 2 are presented here.

The Karolinska Sleepiness Scale is a validated subject-rated instrument for measuring sleepiness, based on a scale from 1 to 9 (with 1 indicating very alert and 9 indicating very sleepy, great effort to stay awake, fighting sleep). The KSS was administered 5 times during the day; before each MSLT nap and before bedtime. The KSS least squares mean score across days 1 and 2 are reported here.

MSLT measures the likelihood of falling asleep. Mean Sleep Latency measures the time to fall asleep (in minutes). On Treatment Days 1 and 2 the subject was instructed on 4 occasions to attempt to fall asleep. Each MSLT nap continued until 3 consecutive 30-sec epochs of stage 1 sleep were reached, or any 30 sec epoch of stage 2, 3, 4 or rapid eye movement sleep was reached. Each nap was terminated after 20 min if no sleep occurred. Sleep latency was measured from lights out to first epoch scored as sleep.

Timeframe: Baseline, prior to start of study drug dosing

Population: Full analysis set defined as all subjects who received at least one dose of study drug and had a baseline efficacy measurement

The PGI-S rating scale is the patient's assessment of general condition. The subject rates their overall condition according to the 7 following categories: 1=normal (no sign of illness), 2=borderline ill, 3=mildly ill, 4=moderately ill, 5=markedly ill, 6=severely ill, and 7=among the most extremely ill. The term "ill" refers to symptoms of jet lag including excessive sleepiness, irritability, malaise, gastrointestinal disturbance, and poor performance. The least squares mean of PGI-S ratings at Baseline is presented here.

Population: Safety analysis population defined as all subjects who had at least one dose of study drug and one State and Trait Anxiety Inventory Assessment after Baseline

The State and Trait Anxiety Inventory is a validated self-reporting instrument used to assess anxiety in adults. The inventory consists of 2 scales, state anxiety, which evaluates how the subject feels currently (transient anxiety), and trait anxiety, which evaluates how the subject feels generally (general tendency towards anxiety). Each scale consists of 20 questions, and a higher score indicates greater anxiety. Scores range from 20 (no anxiety) to 80 (maximum anxiety). The change in total score from Baseline to endpoint is presented here.

Population: Safety analysis population defined as all subjects who had at least one dose of study drug and underwent nocturnal polysomnography at Baseline and Day 2

Nocturnal Polysomnography records normal and abnormal physiological activity during an entire night's sleep. It documents the adequacy of sleep, including frequency duration, and total amount of stage 1-2, stage 3-4 (slow wave sleep), rapid eye movement sleep, and apnea/hypopnea index. Data presented here represents the difference in mean total sleep time overnight from Baseline to Day 2 as recorded by nocturnal polysomnography.
