简要总结

This study will establish the safety and tolerability of suvorexant (MK-4305) when administered for up to 14 months. Participants will be randomized to receive suvorexant or placebo for a 12-month double-blind (DB) Treatment Phase. Participants who complete the 12-month DB Treatment Phase will enter a 2-month DB Randomized Discontinuation Phase. At the time of initial randomization, participants assigned to receive suvorexant during the initial 12-month Treatment Phase will be simultaneously randomized, in a 1:1 ratio, to receive either suvorexant or placebo during the 2-month Randomized Discontinuation Phase. Participants randomized to receive placebo in the initial 12-month Treatment Phase will continue to receive placebo during the 2-month Randomized Discontinuation Phase.

The first 3 nights of the Randomized Discontinuation Phase are referred to as the Run-Out Phase, and will assess rebound and withdrawal.

研究组 & 干预措施

Suvorexant

Experimental

After a 1-week single-blind placebo run-in, participants received suvorexant (40 mg for participants aged 18 to <65 years; and 30 mg for participants aged ≥65 years) daily before bedtime for 12 months during the Treatment Phase.

Placebo

Placebo Comparator

After a 1-week single-blind placebo run-in, participants received dose-matched placebo to suvorexant (administered according to age) daily before bedtime for 12 months during the Treatment Phase.

结局指标

主要结局

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Complex Sleep-related Behaviors AEs During the DB Treatment Phase

时间窗: From the first day of study treatment up to 12 months

Complex sleep-related behaviors were reported as ECIs and were characterized by patients engaging in specific activities while asleep (e.g., eating, drinking, preparing meals, making phone calls, having sex, driving, and sleep walking).

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Selected AEs Associated With Potential for Abuse During the DB Treatment Phase

时间窗: From the first day of study treatment up to 12 months

The pre-specified terms which were suggestive of abuse potential on this study included depersonalization (feeling of watching oneself act, while having no control over a situation), derealization (alteration in the perception or experience of the external world so that it seems unreal), dissociation (includes a wide array of experiences from mild detachment from immediate surroundings to more severe detachment from physical and emotional experience), euphoric mood (exaggerated feeling of physical and emotional well-being and optimism not consonant with apparent stimuli or events), mania (state of abnormally elevated or irritable mood, arousal, and/or energy levels), hallucination (perception in the absence of a stimulus which has qualities of real perception), and potential study medication misuse.

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Suicidal Ideation and/or Behavior AEs During the DB Treatment Phase

时间窗: From the first day of study treatment up to 12 months

Suicidal ideation included suicidal plans, suicidal tendency, death wishes, life weariness, and suicidal intention. Suicidal behaviors included suicide attempts, suicide gesture, and self-injurious behaviour. Suicidal ideation and/or behavior was reported as an AE and considered an ECI.

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Sleep Paralysis AEs During the DB Treatment Phase

时间窗: From the first day of study treatment up to 12 months

Sleep paralysis was defined as the inability to perform voluntary muscle movements during sleep. Sleep paralysis adverse events included sleep-onset paralysis (paralysis as one is falling asleep).

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Hypnagogic/Hypnopompic Hallucinations AEs During the DB Treatment Phase

时间窗: From the first day of study treatment up to 12 months

Perceptual distortions associated with transitions between wakefulness and sleep were termed as hypnagogic (occurring during the onset of sleep) or hypnopompic (occurring during onset of wakefulness) hallucinations.

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Cataplexy Adverse Events (AEs) During the Double-Blind (DB) Treatment Phase

时间窗: From the first day of study treatment up to 12 months

Cataplexy is defined as a sudden loss of muscle tone while awake which prevents voluntary movement.

Percentage of Participants Who Experienced Falls AEs During the DB Treatment Phase

时间窗: From the first day of study treatment up to 12 months

Falls were adjudicated (to establish whether a fall event was due to cataplexy).

次要结局

  • Percentage of Participants With Rebound As Defined By Decreased Subjective Total Sleep Time (sTST) During the DB Run-Out Phase(Baseline (Month 1) and first 3 days of Randomized Discontinuation Phase (otherwise known as the Run-out, Month 13))
  • Least Squares (LS) Mean Change From Baseline in Mean Subjective Total Sleep Time (sTSTm) During First Month of Treatment Phase(Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, and Week 4)
  • Percentage of Participants With Withdrawal Symptoms During the DB Run-Out Phase: Tyrer Withdrawal Symptom Questionnaire (WSQ)(Evening of Month 12 visit and next 3 consecutive days (Night 1, 2, and 3 of Discontinuation Phase [otherwise known as the Run-out]))
  • Percentage of Participants With Rebound As Defined By Increased Subjective Time to Sleep Onset (sTSO) During the DB Run-Out Phase(Baseline (Month 1) and first 3 days of Randomized Discontinuation Phase (otherwise known as the Run-out, Month 13))
  • Least Squares (LS) Mean Change From Baseline in Mean Subjective Time To Sleep Onset (sTSOm) During First Month of Treatment Phase(Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, and Week 4)
