Summary

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study of armodafinil and placebo treatment in healthy subjects with excessive sleepiness associated with jet lag disorder.

Eligibility Criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria

  • The subject has a history of seizures, except for a single febrile seizure.
  • The subject has a psychiatric disorder that would affect participation in the study or full compliance with study procedures.
  • The subject has a clinically significant deviation from normal in clinical laboratory results, vital signs measurements, or physical examination findings.
  • The subject used any prescription or over the counter drugs disallowed by the protocol within 7 days of screening visit 2 (i.e., stimulants, hypnotics).
  • The subject has used an investigational drug within 1 month before the screening visit.
  • The subject has any disorder that may interfere with drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion.
