A Study to Evaluate Next-Dose Transition From Zolpidem to Lemborexant (LEM) for the Treatment of Insomnia

Inclusion Criteria

• Meets the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th ed (DSM-5) criteria for Insomnia Disorder, either currently or prior to zolpidem use, as follows:
• Complains of dissatisfaction with nighttime sleep, in the form of difficulty staying asleep and/or awakening earlier in the morning than desired despite adequate opportunity for sleep
• Frequency of complaint >=3 times per week
• Duration of complaint >=3 months
• Associated with complaint of daytime impairment
• Reports spending at least 7 hours in bed per night
• History of intermittent [taking zolpidem at least 3 or 4 nights per week], or frequent use (at least 5 nights per week) of ZOL-IR or ZOL-ER, for at least 1 month
• Confirmation of intermittent or frequent use of zolpidem (based on review of drug use data). Intermittent use is defined as taking zolpidem at least 3 but fewer than 5 nights per week, for at least 2 weeks each of the 3-week Screening Period. Frequent use is defined as taking zolpidem at least 5 nights per week, during, at minimum, the last 2 weeks of the 3-week Screening Period
• Willing and able to comply with all aspects of the protocol, including staying in bed for at least 7 hours each night
• Willing not to start another pharmacologic treatment for the management of insomnia during the participant's participation in the study

Exclusion Criteria

• Females who are breastfeeding or pregnant at screening or baseline (as documented by a positive serum pregnancy test). A separate baseline assessment is required if a negative screening pregnancy test was obtained more than 72 hours before the first dose of study drug
• Females of childbearing potential who:

Within 28 days before study entry, did not use a highly effective method of contraception, which includes any of the following:

• total abstinence (if it is their preferred and usual lifestyle)
• an intrauterine device or intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS)
• a contraceptive implant
• an oral contraceptive (Participant must be on a stable dose of the same oral contraceptive product for at least 28 days before dosing and throughout the study and for 28 days after study drug discontinuation)
• have a vasectomized partner with confirmed azoospermia
• Do not agree to use a highly effective method of contraception (as described above) throughout the entire study period and for 28 days after study drug discontinuation NOTE: All females will be considered to be of childbearing potential unless they are postmenopausal (amenorrheic for at least 12 consecutive months, in the appropriate age group, and without other known or suspected cause) or have been sterilized surgically (ie, bilateral tubal ligation, total hysterectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy, all with surgery at least 1 month before dosing)
• Any history of moderate or severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)
• Current evidence of a clinically significant, active respiratory disorder other than mild OSA. This includes bronchiectasis, emphysema, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or any other pulmonary disorder identified by review of medical history or physical examination, and which in the opinion of the investigator, could compromise the participant's safety or interfere with study assessments
• A current diagnosis of periodic limb movement disorder, restless legs syndrome, circadian rhythm sleep disorder, or an exclusionary score on screening instruments to rule out individuals with symptoms of certain sleep disorders other than insomnia as follows:
• STOP-Bang score >=5 (participants previously diagnosed with mild OSA are not excluded)
• International Restless Legs Scale (IRLS) score >=16
• Habitually naps during the day more than 3 times per week
• 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
• Reports a history of sleep-related vio
