Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 5-period crossover study is to assess the effect of single oral doses of MK-1064 on latency to persistent sleep (LPS) as measured by polysomnography (PSG) in healthy young male participants, and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single oral doses of MK-1064 and MK-6096 in healthy young male participants. The primary efficacy hypothesis is that at least one dose of MK-1064 is superior to placebo in decreasing LPS in healthy male participants as assessed by PSG.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Latency to Persistent Sleep (LPS) Following Single Doses of MK-1064 and Placebo LPS is measured during overnight sleep laboratory (polysomnography [PSG]) assessment and is defined as the duration of time from the beginning of PSG assessment to the first interval of 10 consecutive minutes of sleep. 1 to 9 hours post dose, within each treatment period
Primary LPS Following Single Doses of MK-6096 and Placebo LPS is measured during overnight sleep laboratory (PSG) assessment and is defined as the duration of time from the beginning of PSG assessment to the first interval of 10 consecutive minutes of sleep. 1 to 9 hours post dose, within each treatment period
Primary Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study drug, whether or not considered related to the use of the study drug. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the study drug, is also an AE. Up to 14 days after the last dose of study drug (Up to approximately 42 days)
Primary Number of Participants Who Discontinued Study Due to an AE An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study drug, whether or not considered related to the use of the study drug. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the study drug, is also an AE. Up to 14 days after the last dose of study drug (Up to approximately 42 days)
Secondary Wake Time After Sleep Onset (WASO) Following Single Doses of MK-1064 and Placebo WASO is measured during overnight sleep laboratory (PSG) assessment and is defined as the duration of wakefulness from the onset of persistent sleep (i.e., 10 consecutive minutes of sleep) to the end of PSG assessment the following morning. 1 to 9 hours post dose, within each treatment period
Secondary WASO Following Single Doses of MK-6096 and Placebo WASO is measured during overnight sleep laboratory (PSG) assessment and is defined as the duration of wakefulness from the onset of persistent sleep (i.e., 10 consecutive minutes of sleep) to the end of PSG assessment the following morning. 1 to 9 hours post dose, within each treatment period
Secondary Change From Baseline in Choice Reaction Time (CRT) Following Single Doses of MK-1064 and Placebo CRT assessment used in this study is a two-choice, computer-controlled test in which the participant responds to stimulus words presented on the screen of a laptop computer. During the test either the word "NO" or the word "YES" is presented on the screen and the participant is instructed to press the corresponding button as quickly as possible. There are 50 trials for which each stimulus word is chosen randomly with equal probability and there is a varying inter-stimulus interval. The mean reaction time of accurate responses is determined. The assessment is performed pre-dose and at 10 hours post dose. The outcome measure is change from baseline to post dose in reaction time. Pre-dose and 10 hours post dose, within each treatment period
