This study is designed to compare 2 doses of APD125 (20 mg and 40 mg) with placebo in otherwise healthy adults with primary insomnia primarily with complaints of maintaining sleep.

Participants will be required to maintain a daily sleep dairy for up to 3 weeks while on study.

Primary Insomnia
Drug: APD125
Drug: Placebo
Phase II

Drug Information available for: Gelatin
U.S. FDA Resources
Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Placebo Control, Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Subjective Study to Assess the Efficacy of APD125 in Patients With Primary Insomnia Characterized by Difficulty Maintaining Sleep

Further study details as provided by Arena Pharmaceuticals:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Change from baseline in subjective number of awakenings after sleep onset (sNAASO) [ Time Frame: During and after 2 weeks of study drug ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Change from baseline in subjective total sleep time (sTST) [ Time Frame: During and after 2 weeks on study drug ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Change from baseline in subjective wake time after sleep onset (sWASO) [ Time Frame: During and after 2 weeks on study drug ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Change in subjective latency to sleep onset (sSLO) [ Time Frame: During and after 2 weeks on study drug ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Safety and tolerability as assessed by changes from baseline in adverse events, vital signs, 12-lead ECGs, physical examinations, and clinical laboratory values. [ Time Frame: During and after 2 weeks on study drug ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
