What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • zolipidemDrug

    Also called Ambien

    zolpidem dosed at 2200 and 0200 per feeding tube depending on randomization

  • ramelteonDrug

    Also called rozerem

    ramelteon dosed at 2200 and 0200 per feeding tube depending on randomization

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Polysomnography Data

    Determine if intervention product elicits more total sleep time

    Measured: 2 weeks postburn

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Pharmacokinetics

    evaluate the PK of zolpidem following standard dosing practices

    Measured: 2 weeks postburn

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing zolipidem and ramelteon in people with Sleep and Burns, run by Shriners Hospitals for Children at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Sep 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Polysomnography Data (time frame: 2 weeks postburn). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00539110, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Jul 2016.
