  • Men only
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male subjects between the ages of 18-40 years.
  • The subject is in good health and must have a satisfactory medical assessment with no clinically significant and relevant abnormalities (of medical history, physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG), clinical laboratory evaluation (hematology, biochemistry, and urinalysis).
  • Subject has a history of regular sleep-wake habits, routinely spending 6.5-8 hours in bed nightly, and does not oversleep by more than 3 hours on weekends.
  • Subject has the ability to provide written, signed, and dated (personally) informed consent to participate in the study, in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonisation Good Clinical Practice Guideline E6 and applicable regulations, before completing any study-related procedures.

Who cannot join

  • Current or relevant previous history of serious, severe, or unstable (acute or progressive) physical or psychiatric illness, any medical disorder that may require treatment or make this subject unlikely to fully complete the study, or any condition that presents undue risk from SPD489 or armodafinil or procedures. Comorbid psychiatric diagnosis will be established by a psychiatric evaluation that includes the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI)-Plus.
  • Subject is currently considered a suicide risk, has previously made a suicide attempt, or has a prior history of, or is currently demonstrating suicidal ideation.
  • Subject has a known or suspected sleep disorder, or another disorder associated with excessive daytime sleepiness, or any other diagnosis that would interfere with assessing sleepiness in subjects with study related induced sleepiness or abnormal findings on the initial PSG conducted on Day -1 such as, but not limited to, Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) or Periodic Limb Movement Arousal Index (PLMAI) >10.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT)

    The MWT was conducted to determine the subjects' ability to stay awake. Subjects sat in a darkened room and were told to "stay awake as long as possible" during the 30 minute session. This is an indicator of how well you are able to function and remain alert in quiet times of inactivity. Higher times are better.

    Measured: Over a period of 8 hours

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS) Scores

    The KSS is a 9-point scale on which the subject rates sleepiness from 1 (very alert) to 9 (very sleepy/fighting sleep). Lower score is better.

    Measured: Over a period of 15 hours

  2. KSS Scores by Timepoint

    The KSS is a 9-point scale on which the subject rates sleepiness from 1 (very alert) to 9 (very sleepy/fighting sleep). Lower score is better.

    Measured: Over a period of 15 hours

  3. Psychomotor Vigilance Task (PVT) Scores

    PVT assesses behavioral alertness. Subjects were required to respond to a visual stimulus by pressing a button on a mechanical device and the reaction time was measured. Higher scores indicate attention lapses.

    Measured: Over a period of 12 hours

  4. PVT Scores by Timepoint

    PVT assesses behavioral alertness. Subjects were required to respond to a visual stimulus by pressing a button on a mechanical device and the reaction time was measured. Higher scores indicate attention lapses.

    Measured: Over a period of 12 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SPD489 20 mg, SPD489 50 mg and SPD489 70 mg in people with Sleep Deprivation, run by Shire at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Jun 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) (time frame: Over a period of 8 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jun 2021.
