Summary

This study was a multi center, randomized, double blind, active and placebo controlled, parallel group study to assess simulated driving performance in XP13512 treated subjects with Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Eligible subjects were randomized to receive a once daily dose of placebo (2 groups), XP13512 1200 mg, or XP13512 1800 mg for 16 days. On Day 16, one of the placebo groups also received one 50 mg dose of diphenhydramine (DPH) to assess the effects of an agent known to have sedative properties, while the other 3 groups received a DPH placebo.

  • Shift workers or subjects who were not on normal day/night sleep cycles;
  • Subjects who had smoked an average of greater than one half pack of cigarettes (or nicotine equivalent) per day within 30 days of the Screening Visit;
  • Subjects who had consumed an average of >5 cups (i.e., 40 ounces) of caffeinated beverages per day within 20 days of the Screening Visit;
  • Subjects with a history of allergy to gabapentin, diphenhydramine, or XP13512 excipients
