Interventions
Drug: Placebo oral capsule
Registration Number
NCT03542851
Lead Sponsor
Balance Therapeutics
Brief Summary

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover study of oral BTD-001 in adults with Idiopathic Hypersomnia.

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover study of oral BTD-001 in adults with Idiopathic Hypersomnia (IH). The objectives of this study are two-fold: 1) To evaluate the efficacy of BTD-001 in subjects with IH as reflected by changes in cognitive, sleep, functional, and quality-of-life measures and 2) To characterize the safety and tolerability of oral BTD-001 administered to subjects with IH.
