Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Total Sleep Time (TST), Latency to Persistent Sleep (LPS) and Wake time after sleep onset (WASO) derived from polysomongraphic (PSG) recording.

Frequently asked questions about SB649868

What is SB649868?

SB649868 is an investigational small molecule developed by GSK plc for sleep disorders, including sleep initiation and maintenance disorders. It has been studied in Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials, primarily in healthy volunteers and in subjects with primary insomnia. It is not described as an approved medicine.

What is SB649868 used for in sleep disorders?

SB649868 was studied for sleep disorders, specifically sleep initiation and maintenance disorders. Trials enrolled healthy volunteers and subjects with primary insomnia to evaluate its effects on disturbed sleep. The completed studies examined dosing, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and cardiac function rather than establishing an approved use.

Who makes SB649868?

SB649868 is developed by GSK plc, which trades under the ticker GSK. GSK sponsored the clinical program, including Phase 1 studies in Germany and the United Kingdom and a Phase 2 study in subjects with primary insomnia. No partner or licensing arrangement is described for this asset.

What phase is SB649868 in?

SB649868 is in Phase 1 development, with a Phase 2 study also completed. It is an investigational drug and is not described as FDA approved. All four listed trials are completed, and none are currently active, so the program is not enrolling new participants at this time.

What clinical trials is SB649868 in?

SB649868 has been studied in completed trials including NCT01030939, a Phase 1 repeat-dose safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and cardiac function study in 72 healthy volunteers; NCT00495729, a 15-day repeat-dose and CYP3A4 interaction study in 36 healthy men; NCT00440323, a disturbed sleep model study in 52 men; and NCT00426816, a Phase 2 study of 10, 30 and 60 mg in 48 subjects with primary insomnia.

Is SB649868 the same as SB-649868?

Yes, SB649868 and SB-649868 refer to the same investigational compound from GSK plc. The hyphenated form SB-649868 appears in the registered clinical trial titles, while SB649868 is the unhyphenated spelling. Both names describe the same small molecule studied for sleep initiation and maintenance disorders.
