| NCT01021852 | Polysomnography Study of MK-6096 in Participants With Primary Insomnia (MK-6096-011) | PHASE2 | COMPLETED | 326 | — | — | Nov 30, 2009 | Feb 1, 2011 | Nov 6, 2018 | - | — |
SE was measured using a polysomnogram (PSG), which consisted of an electroencephalogram (EEG) for registration of brain activity during sleep, an electro-oculogram (EOG) for registration of the eye movements during sleep, and an electromyogram (EMG) for recording chin muscle activity during sleep. Sleep stage scoring was performed visually in 30-second epochs according to Rechtschaffen and Kales (R\&K) criteria and PSG data were read by a Central Reader. SE was defined as total sleep time (TST) in minutes divided by time in bed (measured from lights off to lights on; fixed at 8 hours on each PSG night) in minutes, multiplied by 100, where TST is defined as the total time (minutes) in Stages 1, 2, 3, 4 and Rapid Eye Movement (REM). SE= (total sleep time/time in bed) x 100. Least squares (LS) mean SE was reported for each treatment arm.
An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR's product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR's product, was also an AE. The percentage of participants with AEs are presented for the first day of randomized treatment dosing (Day 1) through the last day of randomized treatment dosing (Day 29) in Treatment Periods 1 and 2.

| MK-6096 2.5 mg/Placebo | EXPERIMENTAL | Prior to Treatment Period 1, participants undergo a 3 week screening period and receive single-blind placebo for the last 2 weeks if screening criteria are met.
