modafinil and Idiopathic Hypersomnia

modafinil has been researched along with Idiopathic Hypersomnia in 20 studies

Modafinil: A benzhydryl acetamide compound, central nervous system stimulant, and CYP3A4 inducing agent that is used in the treatment of NARCOLEPSY and SLEEP WAKE DISORDERS.
modafinil : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of armodafinil and (S)-modafinil. A central nervous system stimulant, it is used for the treatment of sleeping disorders such as narcolepsy, obstructive sleep apnoea, and shift-work sleep disorder. The optical enantiomers of modafinil have similar pharmacological actions in animals.
2-[(diphenylmethyl)sulfinyl]acetamide : A sulfoxide that is dimethylsulfoxide in which two hydrogens attached to one of the methyl groups are replaced by phenyl groups, while one hydrogen attached to the other methyl group is replaced by a carbamoyl (aminocarbonyl) group.

Idiopathic Hypersomnia: A sleep disorder of central nervous system origin characterized by prolonged nocturnal sleep and periods of daytime drowsiness. Affected individuals experience difficulty with awakening in the morning and may have associated sleep drunkenness, automatic behaviors, and memory disturbances. This condition differs from narcolepsy in that daytime sleep periods are longer, there is no association with CATAPLEXY, and the multiple sleep latency onset test does not record sleep-onset rapid eye movement sleep.

Trial Overview

Trial Outcomes

Epworth Sleepiness Scale

"Scores on the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) were averaged by subject across all administrations for a given drug condition (i.e. administered twice on clarithromycin (once during week 1 and once during week 2) and twice on placebo (once during week 1 and once during week 2)).~ESS scores can range from 0 to 24. Higher scores indicate higher levels of sleepiness." (NCT01146600)
Timeframe: baseline, then after 1 week and 2 weeks on each study drug

FOSQ

"Scores on the Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ) were averaged by subject across all administrations for a given drug condition (i.e. administered twice on clarithromycin (once during week 1 and once during week 2) and twice on placebo (once during week 1 and once during week 2)).~Scores on the FOSQ can range from 5 to 20. Higher FOSQ scores indicate less impairment due to sleepiness." (NCT01146600)
Timeframe: baseline, then after 1 week and 2 weeks on each study drug

PSQI

"Scores on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), a questionnaire based assessment of sleep quality. Scores were averaged by subject across all administrations for a given drug condition (i.e. administered twice on clarithromycin (once during week 1 and once during week 2) and twice on placebo (once during week 1 and once during week 2)).~Scores on the PSQI can range from 0 to 21. Higher scores indicate poorer sleep quality." (NCT01146600)
Timeframe: baseline, then after 1 week and 2 weeks on each study drug

Psychomotor Vigilance Task (PVT) Reaction Time

"Median reaction time on the PVT at the end of the second week of treatment. Lower values reflect faster reaction times (I.e., greater vigilance).~Note that the PVT provides a median of reaction times to all stimuli (~100) presented during the 10 minute PVT test. Each subject had two PVT tests at each visit, resulting in two median values. These were averaged, and then, for the purposes of this outcome, we then obtained the MEAN across multiple subjects for each condition (baseline, clarithromycin week 2, placebo week 2)" (NCT01146600)
Timeframe: week 2 of each intervention

PVT Median Reaction Time at Week 1

"median reaction time on the PVT at week 1 of each intervention. Lower values reflect faster reaction times (i.e., better vigilance)~Note that the PVT provides a median of reaction times to all stimuli (~100) presented during the 10 minute PVT test. Each subject had two PVT tests at each visit, resulting in two median values. These were averaged, and then, for the purposes of this outcome, we then obtained the MEAN across multiple subjects for each condition (baseline, clarithromycin week 1, placebo week 1)" (NCT01146600)
Timeframe: week 1

PVT Number of Lapses

Number of lapses (no response for > 500 msec) on the PVT, averaged by subject across all administrations for a given drug condition (i.e. administered twice at baseline, four times on clarithromycin (twice during week 1 and twice during week 2), and four times on placebo (twice during week 1 and twice during week 2)). Higher numbers indicate worse vigilance. (NCT01146600)
Timeframe: baseline, then after 1 week and 2 weeks on each study drug

SF-36, Vitality Subscale

"The SF-36 is a health outcome scale with multiple subsections. Subjects were administered the entire SF-36; this analysis is of the vitality subscore provided by this scale. Scores were averaged by subject across all administrations for a given drug condition (i.e. administered once at baseline, twice on clarithromycin (once during week 1 and once during week 2) and twice on placebo (once during week 1 and once during week 2)).~The vitality subscore is calculated using four questions from the SF-36, and can range from 0 to 100. Higher scores reflect more vitality." (NCT01146600)
Timeframe: baseline, then after 1 week and 2 weeks on each study drug
