Popis: Study Objective(s):The dual orexin receptor antagonist, lemborexant (LEM), is being investigated for the treatment of insomnia disorder. Drugs targeting the orexin system, like LEM, may decrease wakefulness and promote sleep with fewer potential adverse effects (AEs) than some currently available pharmacological insomnia therapies. LEM has been studied in 2 pivotal phase 3 trials for insomnia disorder, SUNRISE-1 (NCT02783729; E2006-G000-304) and SUNRISE-2 (NCT02952820; E2006-G000-303). Analyses presented here are derived from patient-reported (subjective) efficacy data pooled from SUNRISE-1 and SUNRISE-2 during 1-month of treatment in adult and elderly (age ≥65y) subjects with DSM-5 insomnia disorder.Method:SUNRISE-1 was a 1-month, double-blind, randomized, placebo (PBO)- and active-controlled (zolpidem tartrate extended-release 6.25mg [ZOL; not reported), parallel-group study in 1006 subjects (age ≥55y). SUNRISE-2 was a 12-month (6-month PBO-controlled, 6-month active treatment), double-blind study in 949 subjects (age ≥18y). In both studies, subjects were randomized to PBO, LEM5, or LEM10 (SUNRISE-1 subjects could also be randomized to ZOL; not included in pooled analysis) following a 2-week PBO run-in. Changes from baseline (BL) in subjective sleep onset latency (sSOL), subjective sleep efficiency (sSE), and subjective wake after sleep onset (sWASO) were analyzed using mixed effect model repeated measurement analysis. Sleep onset and sleep maintenance responders were analyzed via Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel test stratified by study, region and age group.Results:The pooled analysis set comprised 1693 subjects (PBO, n=527; LEM5, n=582; LEM10, n=584). Reductions from BL in sSOL were significantly greater for LEM5 and LEM10 vs PBO during the first 7 days of treatment and at the end of Month 1 (all comparisons P30 min) was statistically significantly larger for LEM5 and LEM10 vs PBO (first 7 days: both P10 min, if BL >60 min) was statistically significantly larger for LEM5 and LEM10 vs PBO (first 7 days: both PConclusions:LEM improved sleep onset and sleep maintenance in adult and elderly subjects with insomnia disorder, and was well tolerated. Average values on sleep maintenance endpoints showed that subjects treated with LEM obtained >1 hour of additional sleep per night vs subjects who received PBO.Funding Acknowledgements:Supported by Eisai Inc.
