Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Male subjects between the ages of 18-40 years.
  • The subject is in good health and must have a satisfactory medical assessment with no clinically significant and relevant abnormalities (of medical history, physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG), clinical laboratory evaluation (hematology, biochemistry, and urinalysis).
  • Subject has a history of regular sleep-wake habits, routinely spending 6.5-8 hours in bed nightly, and does not oversleep by more than 3 hours on weekends.
  • Subject has the ability to provide written, signed, and dated (personally) informed consent to participate in the study, in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonisation Good Clinical Practice Guideline E6 and applicable regulations, before completing any study-related procedures.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Current or relevant previous history of serious, severe, or unstable (acute or progressive) physical or psychiatric illness, any medical disorder that may require treatment or make this subject unlikely to fully complete the study, or any condition that presents undue risk from SPD489 or armodafinil or procedures. Comorbid psychiatric diagnosis will be established by a psychiatric evaluation that includes the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI)-Plus.
  • Subject is currently considered a suicide risk, has previously made a suicide attempt, or has a prior history of, or is currently demonstrating suicidal ideation.
  • Subject has a known or suspected sleep disorder, or another disorder associated with excessive daytime sleepiness, or any other diagnosis that would interfere with assessing sleepiness in subjects with study related induced sleepiness or abnormal findings on the initial PSG conducted on Day -1 such as, but not limited to, Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) or Periodic Limb Movement Arousal Index (PLMAI) >10.
