Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Placebo, Then ADX-N05; Participants first receive a placebo to match ADX-N05 once a day for 2 consecutive weeks (Weeks 1 and 2). They will then receive ADX-N05 150 mg tablet once a day for seven days (Week 3) followed by 300 mg (2 tablets) once a day for seven days (Week 4).	Drug: ADX-N05; 150 mg once a day for seven days followed by 300 mg once a day for seven days; Drug: Placebo; Placebo to match ADX-N05 once a day for 2 consecutive weeks
Placebo Comparator: ADX-N05, Then Placebo; Participants first receive ADX-N05 150 mg tablet once a day for seven days (Week 1) followed by 300 mg (2 tablets) once a day for seven days (Week 2). They will then receive a placebo to match ADX-N05 once a day for 2 consecutive weeks (Weeks 3 and 4).	Drug: ADX-N05; 150 mg once a day for seven days followed by 300 mg once a day for seven days; Drug: Placebo; Placebo to match ADX-N05 once a day for 2 consecutive weeks

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Change From Baseline in the Average Sleep Latency Time (in Minutes) as Determined From the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) Following Two Weeks of Treatment With ADX-N05 vs. Two Weeks of Treatment With Placebo	The MWT is a validated objective measure of the ability to stay awake for a defined period of time. The change from baseline in the mean sleep latency from the MWT was the average of sleep latency from the four trials of the MWT.	Baseline up to 2 weeks post-dose.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) Score During Weeks 1 and 3	The ESS is a questionnaire intended to measure daytime sleepiness. In this test, participants answer questions with regard to the level of sleepiness they experienced over approximately the 7 days prior to the assessment while performing eight common, non-stimulating activities. The ESS total score range is 1 to 24. Each activity is rated on a 4-point scale ranging from a minimum of "would never doze" to a maximum of "a high chance of dozing." Thus, the ESS scale range is as follows: 0=would never doze, 1=slight chance of dozing, 2=moderate chance of dozing, 3=high chance of dozing; 0 indicates a better outcome, and 3 indicates a worse outcome. A negative mean change value indicates a decrease in score from baseline and an improvement in daytime sleepiness.	Baseline up to Week 3 post-dose.
Change From Baseline in Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) Score During Weeks 2 and 4	The ESS is a questionnaire intended to measure daytime sleepiness. In this test, participants answer questions with regard to the level of sleepiness they experienced over approximately the 7 days prior to the assessment while performing eight common, non-stimulating activities. The ESS total score range is 1 to 24. Each activity is rated on a 4-point scale ranging from a minimum of "would never doze" to a maximum of "a high chance of dozing." Thus, the ESS scale range is as follows: 0=would never doze, 1=slight chance of dozing, 2=moderate chance of dozing, 3=high chance of dozing; 0 indicates a better outcome, and 3 indicates a worse outcome. A negative mean change value indicates a decrease in score from baseline and an improvement in daytime sleepiness.	Baseline up to Week 4 post-dose.
Number of Participants With Improved Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) Scores During Weeks 1 and 3	The CGI-C scale was completed at Week 1 through 4 visits. The participant was rated on a 7-point scale ranging from a minimum of "Very much improved" to a maximum of "Very much worse." The proportion of participants experiencing at least minimal improvement on the CGI-C was calculated and summarized for each of the two weeks of each of the treatment periods. The CGI-C scale consists of the following ratings: 1-Very Much improved, 2-Much improved, 3-Minimally improved, 4-No change, 5-Minimally worse, 6-Much worse, 7-Very much worse; a rating of 1 indicates a better outcome, and a rating of 7 indicates a worse outcome. Improvement was defined as a CGI-rating of 1, 2, or 3.	Week 1 and Week 3 post-dose.

Improvement was defined as a CGI-rating of 1, 2, or 3.	Week 2 and Week 4 post-dose.
