What is being measured

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

  1. Placebo-corrected change from baseline in the HR-corrected QTcF (ΔΔQTcF)

    Measured: Various time points (for up to 24 hours) on Day 1 and Day 2 of each period. The 4 periods will be separated by a wash-out period of 7-10 days. Total duration: up to 8 weeks.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Plasma PK parameters of daridorexant: - AUC from 0 to 24 hours (AUC0-24)

    Measured: Various time points (for up to 24 hours) on Day 1 and Day 2 of each period. The 4 periods will be separated by a wash-out period of 7-10 days. Total duration: up to 8 weeks.

  2. Plasma PK parameters of daridorexant: - Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)

    Measured: Various time points (for up to 24 hours) on Day 1 and Day 2 of each period. The 4 periods will be separated by a wash-out period of 7-10 days. Total duration: up to 8 weeks.

  3. Plasma PK parameters of daridorexant: - Time to reach Cmax (tmax)

    Measured: Various time points (for up to 24 hours) on Day 1 and Day 2 of each period. The 4 periods will be separated by a wash-out period of 7-10 days. Total duration: up to 8 weeks.

  4. Plasma PK parameters of daridorexant: - T½

    Measured: Various time points (for up to 24 hours) on Day 1 and Day 2 of each period. The 4 periods will be separated by a wash-out period of 7-10 days. Total duration: up to 8 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Daridorexant and Moxifloxacin in people with Healthy, run by Idorsia Pharmaceuticals Ltd. at 1 site in Czechia.

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 16 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 16 Sep 2020. 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 Czechia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Placebo-corrected change from baseline in the HR-corrected QTcF (ΔΔQTcF) (time frame: Various time points (for up to 24 hours) on Day 1 and Day 2 of each period. The 4 periods will be separated by a wash-out period of 7-10 days. Total duration: up to 8 weeks.). 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 NCT04250506, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 16 Sep 2020.
