Active clinical trials for "Sleep Initiation and Maintenance Disorders"

Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) and insomnia are major public health concerns, and each are independently linked to reduced quality of life, disability, and high healthcare costs. Insomnia, characterized by difficulty initiating or maintaining sleep, or nonrestorative sleep, is prevalent in 10% of the general population and is co-morbid in 70% of patients with SUDs. Primary insomnia and SUDs are chronic, unremitting diseases and have a complex bidirectional relationship. Insomnia symptoms may predate the onset of SUDs and may explain high prevalence of self-treatment. Insomnia may also be a direct effect of intoxication, withdrawal, or abstinence from the substance of abuse. Subjective and objective measures of sleep disruption have been shown in various stages of abuse and recovery. Insomnia is the most well documented predictor of substance use relapse. Treatment specifically targeting chronic insomnia is essential for improved clinical outcomes. Although, chronic insomnia is a well-established, modifiable risk factor, to our knowledge, there are no interdisciplinary residential treatment programs that specifically treat chronic insomnia during acute SUDs treatment. We propose that improved treatment of insomnia as part of a comprehensive reinforcement-based outpatient treatment program will provide an efficient and cost effective opportunity to improve standard outpatient SUD. Converging evidence suggests that prophylactic CBT-I during SUD treatment may have short and long-term efficacy for sleep, and improve attrition. In the proposed study, patients with co-morbid SUDs and insomnia will engage in an 8-week group CBT-I (gCBT-I) program in addition to receiving treatment as usual for SUDs. This study may provide new hope to effectively treat insomnia in SUD and lead to a new standardization of outpatient care. We hypothesize that a CBT-I intervention can be implemented as part of an evidence-based SUD treatment program within a residential facility.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of a combination drug product (SM-1) containing diphenhydramine, zolpidem and lorazepam, in adult participants who sometimes have difficulty in falling asleep or staying asleep, but who do not have chronic insomnia. Participants will receive SM-1, or a combination of diphenhydramine and zolpidem, or a combination of diphenhydramine and lorazepam, or placebo during 4 one-night stays at a sleep center.

Cognitive-behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) has been shown to be an effective treatment for insomnia in multiple populations, including women during pregnancy and postpartum. Online CBT-I has also been shown to be effective and comparable to in-person CBT-I, and shows promise as an accessible treatment alternative to in-person CBT-I for pregnant women experiencing insomnia. As the harmful consequences of insomnia or sleep disturbances have been well documented during late pregnancy, this randomized-controlled trial will compare the efficacy of both in-person and online CBT-I on pregnant women with insomnia to a wait-list control group.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the abuse potential of lemborexant (E2006) in comparison to placebo and 2 controls with known abuse potential (ie, zolpidem and suvorexant) with similar indications (zolpidem and suvorexant) or mechanisms of action (suvorexant).

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of suvorexant on insomnia symptoms in peri- and postmenopausal women who are experiencing sleep difficulties related to nighttime hot flashes.

The therapeutic options are limited in Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients with insomnia and are often based on pharmacological treatments. It has been shown that the cognitive behavioral therapy can be effective in primary insomnia. To the investigators knowledge, the effect of computerized cognitive behavioural therapy on insomnia in PD has not been evaluated before. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the beneficial effects of 6-weeks of computerized cognitive behavioural therapy on clinical and sleep variables of insomnia in Parkinson's disease patients.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of suvorexant versus placebo on sleep pressure and circadian rhythm in hypertensives with insomnia.

To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of neuromodulation by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in the patients with primary chronic insomnia .

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of transdiagnostic nurse-administered 4-session group cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) plus standard care, compared to standard care alone, for improving sleep and daytime function, enhancing recovery, preventing relapses, and reducing medication burden in patients with the first episode of mood disorders.

The study will determine which of two different types of positive airway pressure (PAP therapy) modes are more effective in reducing sleep breathing events in chronic insomnia patients and in decreasing insomnia severity.
