A Long-Term Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Controlled, Parallel Group Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Lemborexant in Subjects With Insomnia Disorder (SUNRISE 2)
The key objectives of this study are to determine, using sleep diaries, whether lemborexant
at the doses 5 milligrams (mg) and 10 mg is superior to placebo on subjective sleep onset,
subjective sleep efficiency, and subjective sleep maintenance in participants with insomnia
disorder.
at the doses 5 milligrams (mg) and 10 mg is superior to placebo on subjective sleep onset,
subjective sleep efficiency, and subjective sleep maintenance in participants with insomnia
disorder.
This is a long-term (approximately 1 year), multicenter, randomized, controlled,
double-blind, parallel group study of two doses of lemborexant and placebo in approximately
900 male or female participants with insomnia disorder. Approximately 40% of participants
will be age 65 years or older. The study will last a maximum of 60 weeks, and will include a
Screening Period, an approximately 54-week Treatment Period (during which study medication
will be administered), and a 2-week Follow-up Period. All participants will receive
lemborexant for at least 6 months and will receive placebo at some point during the study.
Participants will not know which medication they receive (lemborexant or placebo) until the
study has been completed, and will not know the timings at which the medication will change.

minutes on at least 3 nights per week in the previous 4 weeks
- History of regular time spent in bed, either sleeping or trying to sleep, between 7

- Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) score ≥15
- Confirmation of current insomnia symptoms as determined from the Sleep Diary completed
on at least 7 consecutive mornings (minimum 5 of 7 for eligibility), such that sSOL
≥30 minutes on at least 3 of the 7 nights and/or sWASO ≥60 minutes on at least 3 of
the 7 nights
- Confirmation of time spent in bed, as determined from on the Sleep Diary completed on
7 mornings between the first and second screening visit, such that there are not more
than 2 nights with duration of time spent in bed 7 hours and 10 hours
- Confirmation of regular bedtimes and wake times such that the participant has a
regular time spent in bed, either sleeping or trying to sleep, between 7 and 10 hours

score on screening instruments to rule out individuals with symptoms of certain sleep
disorders other than insomnia.

- Reports symptoms potentially related to narcolepsy that in the clinical opinion of the
investigator indicates the need for referral for a diagnostic evaluation for the
presence of narcolepsy

complex sleep-related behavior, eg, making phone calls, or preparing and eating food
while asleep
- For participants who underwent polysomnography (PSG) within the previous year:
- Age 18 to 64 years: Apnea Hypopnea Index ≥10, or Periodic Limb Movements with
Arousal Index ≥10

- Females of childbearing potential who are not practicing acceptable pregnancy
prevention methods (NOTE: All females will be considered to be of childbearing
potential unless they are postmenopausal or have been sterilized surgically.)
- Excessive caffeine use that in the opinion of the investigator contributes to the
participant's insomnia, or habitually consumes caffeine-containing beverages after

gastrointestinal, renal, neurological [including participants who lack capacity and/or
