What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in the Average Sleep Latency Time (in Minutes) as Determined From the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) Following Two Weeks of Treatment With ADX-N05 vs. Two Weeks of Treatment With Placebo

    The MWT is a validated objective measure of the ability to stay awake for a defined period of time. The change from baseline in the mean sleep latency from the MWT was the average of sleep latency from the four trials of the MWT.

    Measured: Baseline up to 2 weeks post-dose.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change From Baseline in Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) Score During Weeks 1 and 3

    The ESS is a questionnaire intended to measure daytime sleepiness. In this test, participants answer questions with regard to the level of sleepiness they experienced over approximately the 7 days prior to the assessment while performing eight common, non-stimulating activities. The ESS total score range is 1 to 24. Each activity is rated on a 4-point scale ranging from a minimum of "would never doze" to a maximum of "a high chance of dozing." Thus, the ESS scale range is as follows: 0=would never doze, 1=slight chance of dozing, 2=moderate chance of dozing, 3=high chance of dozing; 0 indicates a better outcome, and 3 indicates a worse outcome. A negative mean change value indicates a decrease in score from baseline and an improvement in daytime sleepiness.

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 3 post-dose.

  2. Change From Baseline in Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) Score During Weeks 2 and 4

    The ESS is a questionnaire intended to measure daytime sleepiness. In this test, participants answer questions with regard to the level of sleepiness they experienced over approximately the 7 days prior to the assessment while performing eight common, non-stimulating activities. The ESS total score range is 1 to 24. Each activity is rated on a 4-point scale ranging from a minimum of "would never doze" to a maximum of "a high chance of dozing." Thus, the ESS scale range is as follows: 0=would never doze, 1=slight chance of dozing, 2=moderate chance of dozing, 3=high chance of dozing; 0 indicates a better outcome, and 3 indicates a worse outcome. A negative mean change value indicates a decrease in score from baseline and an improvement in daytime sleepiness.

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 4 post-dose.

  3. Number of Participants With Improved Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) Scores During Weeks 1 and 3

    The CGI-C scale was completed at Week 1 through 4 visits. The participant was rated on a 7-point scale ranging from a minimum of "Very much improved" to a maximum of "Very much worse." The proportion of participants experiencing at least minimal improvement on the CGI-C was calculated and summarized for each of the two weeks of each of the treatment periods. The CGI-C scale consists of the following ratings: 1-Very Much improved, 2-Much improved, 3-Minimally improved, 4-No change, 5-Minimally worse, 6-Much worse, 7-Very much worse; a rating of 1 indicates a better outcome, and a rating of 7 indicates a worse outcome. Improvement was defined as a CGI-rating of 1, 2, or 3.

    Measured: Week 1 and Week 3 post-dose.

  4. Number of Participants With Improved Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) Scores During Weeks 2 and 4

    The CGI-C scale was completed at Week 1 through 4 visits. The participant was rated on a 7-point scale ranging from a minimum of "Very much improved" to a maximum of "Very much worse." The proportion of participants experiencing at least minimal improvement on the CGI-C was calculated and summarized for each of the two weeks of each of the treatment periods. The CGI-C scale consists of the following ratings: 1-Very Much improved, 2-Much improved, 3-Minimally improved, 4-No change, 5-Minimally worse, 6-Much worse, 7-Very much worse; a rating of 1 indicates a better outcome, and a rating of 7 indicates a worse outcome. Improvement was defined as a CGI-rating of 1, 2, or 3.

    Measured: Week 2 and Week 4 post-dose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ADX-N05 in people with Narcolepsy, run by Jazz Pharmaceuticals at 10 sites 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 3 inclusion and 9 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 6 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites 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 6 Jul 2021). 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?

Change From Baseline in the Average Sleep Latency Time (in Minutes) as Determined From the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) Following Two Weeks of Treatment With ADX-N05 vs. Two Weeks of Treatment With Placebo (time frame: Baseline up to 2 weeks post-dose.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01485770, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 6 Jul 2021.
