Polysomnographic assessment of suvorexant in patients with probable Alzheimer's disease dementia and insomnia: a randomized trial
Abstract
Introduction: We evaluated the clinical profile of the orexin receptor antagonist suvorexant for treating insomnia in patients with mild‐to‐moderate probable Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia. Methods: Randomized, double‐blind, 4‐week trial of suvorexant 10 mg (could be increased to 20 mg based on clinical response) or placebo in patients who met clinical diagnostic criteria for both probable AD dementia and insomnia. Sleep was assessed by overnight polysomnography in a sleep laboratory. The primary endpoint was change‐from‐baseline in polysomnography‐derived total sleep time (TST) at week 4. Results: Of 285 participants randomized (suvorexant, N = 142; placebo, N = 143), 277 (97%) completed the trial (suvorexant, N = 136; placebo, N = 141). At week 4, the model‐based least squares mean improvement‐from‐baseline in TST was 73 minutes for suvorexant and 45 minutes for placebo; (difference = 28 minutes [95% confidence interval 11‐45], p < 0.01). Somnolence was reported in 4.2% of suvorexant‐treated patients and 1.4% of placebo‐treated patients. Discussion: Suvorexant improved TST in patients with probable AD dementia and insomnia.

Most therapies approved for Alzheimer's disease are indicated to only treat symptoms: acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, a glutamatergic modulator (memantine), and an orexin receptor antagonist (suvorexant) for Alzheimer-related insomnia.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
