Last Updated: 2024-11-12

Results Overview

LPS is defined as the time in minutes from lights off to the first epoch of 20 consecutive epochs of non- wakefulness as measured by PSG. Change from baseline to average LPS on Day 29 and 30 was reported.

Participant Flow

Participants took part in the study at 67 investigative sites in the United States, Spain, Germany, Canada, United Kingdom, and Italy from 31 May 2016 to 30 January 2018.

A total of 3537 participants were screened, of which 1006 participants were randomized to the treatment period. All participants who were subsequently randomized completed a Run-in Period before randomization to treatment period.

Body sway is detected through a cable around the participant's waist by the ataxia meter. Body sway is measured in units of one-third degree of the angle of arc. For ease in reporting, these are called arbitrary units, with a higher number indicating more body sway (less postural stability). Change from baseline in mean body sway on Days 2 and 3 was reported.

Timeframe: First 7 nights (approximately Week 1) and Last 7 nights (approximately Week 4)

Population: FAS was the group of randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of randomized study drug and had at least 1 postdose primary efficacy measurement at given time points.

sSOL: estimated minutes from time attempted to sleep to sleep onset. sWASO: estimated minutes of wake at night after initial sleep onset to time stopped trying to sleep for the night. sTST: minutes of sleep from sleep onset to time stopped trying to sleep for the night. sSOL, sWASO, sTST were analyzed with diary handling rules (DHR) on an electronic sleep diary. Subjective measures were derived from sleep diaries entries, collected daily and analyzed at appropriate intervals.

Timeframe: First 7 nights (approximately Week 1) and Last 7 nights (approximately Week 4)

Population: FAS was the group of randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of randomized study drug and had at least 1 postdose primary efficacy measurement at given time points.

sSE: percentage of sTST per subjective time spent in bed asleep, calculated as the interval from the time attempted to sleep to time stopped trying to sleep for the night, and time spent asleep derived from subjective time spent in bed minus sWASO. sWASO: estimated minutes of wake at night after initial sleep onset to time stopped trying to sleep for the night. sSE was analyzed with DHR on an electronic sleep diary. Subjective measures were derived from sleep diaries entries, collected daily and analyzed at appropriate intervals.

Population: FAS was the group of randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of randomized study drug and had at least 1 postdose primary efficacy measurement at given time points.

The ISI is a 7-item self-report questionnaire assessing the nature, severity, and impact of insomnia. The dimensions evaluated were: severity of sleep onset; sleep maintenance; early morning awakening problems; sleep dissatisfaction; interference of sleep difficulties with daytime functioning; noticeability of the sleep problems by others; and distress caused by the sleep difficulties. A 5-point Likert scale was used to rate each item (from 0 = no problem to 4 = very severe problem) yielding a total score from 0 to 28.

Population: FAS was the group of randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of randomized study drug and had at least 1 postdose primary efficacy measurement at given time points.

The FSS is a self-report scale on which participants are instructed to choose a number from 1 to 7 that indicates their degree of agreement with each of 9 statements about their fatigue where "1" indicates strongly disagree, and "7" indicates strongly agree. The FSS total score was the sum of all responses to the 9 questions. The FSS average item score was the average of the score for each item. Higher total scores and higher average item scores indicated greater fatigue.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Days 2/3

Population: FAS was the group of randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of randomized study drug and had at least 1 postdose primary efficacy measurement at given time points.

POA reflects the ability to focus attention and process information. POA is calculated from the sum of simple reaction time, choice reaction time and digit vigilance. SOMT reflects time taken to retrieve information from working and episodic memory. SOMT is a composite score created by combining numerical working memory and spatial working memory and word recognition and picture recognition. Cognitive performance assessment was done by a computerized performance assessment battery (PAB) which was administered on a laptop computer. A positive change from baseline reflects impairment and a lower value of decrease from baseline indicates better performance. Change from baseline to average POA and SOMT on Days 2 and 3 was reported.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Days 2/3

Population: FAS was group of randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of randomized study drug and had at least 1 postdose efficacy measurement at given time points.

QOM represents the ability to store information in memory and subsequently retrieve it. It is a composite score created by combining accuracy measures from 2 sets of working memory and 4 sets of episodic memory. Two sets of working memory were included: numerical and spatial working memory, and ranges from -2 to 2. Four sets of episodic memory were included: immediate and delayed word recall, and word and picture recognition, and ranges from -200 to 400. COA is the ability to sustain attention. Number of correct responses (out of 50) for choice reaction time was added to total number of targets correctly identified (out of 45) digit vigilance minus number of false alarms (total score of -45 to 95). Higher values were better. Change from baseline to average QOM and COA on Days 2 and 3 was reported.
