Abstract

Abstract Study Objectives To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Dimdazenil, a positive allosteric modulator with selectivity for α1, α5 subunit-containing GABAA receptors, on sleep variables in patients with insomnia disorder. Methods In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, adults (18–65 years) with insomnia disorder were randomized (1:1:1:1 to receive daily oral placebo, Dimdazenil (1.5, 2.5, or 5 mg) for 14 days. The primary efficacy outcome was the total sleep time (TST) on day 1/2 and day 13/14, measured by polysomnography. The secondary outcome measures included (1) latency to persistent sleep (LPS), sleep efficiency (SE), wake after sleep onset (WASO) and number of awakenings (NAW) on days 1/2 and day 13/14, and (2) the average subjective sleep latency (sSL), total sleep time (sTST), wake after sleep onset (sWASO) and number of awakenings (sNAW) recorded in sleep diary and sleep questionnaire, and the evaluation of insomnia severity index. Rebound insomnia, withdrawal, and treatment-emergent adverse events were also assessed. Results Of 569 patients screened, 288 (76.4% female) were randomized and received one dose. For the primary outcomes, TST was significantly improved in the Dimdazenil 1.5, 2.5, and 5 mg group compared with the placebo group at day 1/2, and significantly improved in the Dimdazenil 2.5 and 5 mg groups compared with the placebo group at day 13/14. The Least Squares Means (standard errors) and 95% Confidence Intervals for the three active doses compared to placebo are 25.5 (8.31), (9.16, 41.89) for the 1.5 mg dose; 17.4 (8.19), (1.29, 33.55) for the 2.5 mg dose; 22.8 (8.15), (6.72, 38.80) for the 5 mg dose on day 1/2. Corresponding data on day 13/14 are 7.6 (8.07), (−8.24, 23.53) and 19.3 (8.06), (3.43, 35.17) and 18.2 (7.95), (2.49, 33.80). LPS was significantly reduced in the Dimdazenil 5 mg group compared with the placebo group on day 1/2. SE was significantly improved in the Dimdazenil 1.5 and 5 mg group compared with the placebo group at day 1/2. In the subjective sleep parameters, sSL on average was significantly lower in the Dimdazenil 1.5, 2.5, and 5 mg groups compared with the placebo group. sTST on average was significantly higher in the Dimdazenil 1.5, 2.5, and 5 mg groups compared with the placebo group. The most common TEAEs were dizziness, vertigo, and weakness with no clinically relevant treatment-related serious adverse events. Conclusions Dimdazenil of 1.5, 2.5, and 5 mg improved certain objective and subjective sleep outcomes in people with insomnia disorder, with a favorable safety profile. These findings suggested that Dimdazenil may represent a promising new treatment for insomnia disorder, a prevalent condition with limited effective and safe treatments available. Clinical Trial Information A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, multidose, placebo parallel controlled phase II clinical study of EVT201 in the treatment of insomnia disorders (http://www.chinadrugtrials.org), with the number of CTR20150664.
