Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of the Safety and Effectiveness of ADX-N05 for Excessive Daytime Sleepiness in Subjects With Narcolepsy (NCT NCT01681121)

NCT ID: NCT01681121

Last Updated: 2021-05-28

Results Overview

The MWT is a validated objective measure of the ability to stay awake for a defined period of time. The primary analysis was a comparison of treatments vs. control groups on change from Baseline to last available post-Baseline assessment (Week 12/Last Assessment) in the average sleep latency time (in minutes) averaged across the first four trials of the MWT using a two-sample t-test.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Week 12

The CGI-C scale rated the change in the participant's condition as compared to the Baseline visit on a 7-point scale ranging from a minimum of "Very much improved" to a maximum of "Very much worse." The proportion of subjects experiencing at least minimal improvement on the CGI-C was calculated and summarized for each of the treatment groups at Week 4 and the last available post-Baseline assessment (Week 12/Last Assessment). The CGI-C scale consists of the following ratings: 1-Very Much improved, 2-Much improved, 3-Minimally improved, 4-No change, 5-Minimally worse, 6-Much worse, 7-Very much worse; a rating of 1 indicates a better outcome, and a rating of 7 indicates a worse outcome. Improvement was defined as a CGI-rating of 1, 2, or 3.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline up to Week 4 post-dose.

The ESS is a questionnaire intended to measure daytime sleepiness. In this test, participants answer questions with regard to the level of sleepiness they experienced over approximately the 7 days prior to the assessment while performing eight common, non-stimulating activities. The ESS total score range is 1 to 24. Each activity is rated on a 4-point scale ranging from a minimum of "would never doze" to a maximum of "a high chance of dozing." Thus, the ESS scale range is as follows: 0=would never doze, 1=slight chance of dozing, 2=moderate chance of dozing, 3=high chance of dozing; 0 indicates a better outcome, and 3 indicates a worse outcome. A negative mean change value indicates a decrease in score from baseline and an improvement in daytime sleepiness.
