| Scientific title | A randomised double-blind, crossover study comparing the efficacy of prolonged-release melatonin versus placebo in a three-week treatment of diabetic patients suffering from insomnia |
| Study hypothesis | Type 2 uncontrolled diabetic patients often have low endogenous melatonin and suffer from sleep disorders. The effect of a prolonged-release melatonin (PRM) formulation on glucose lipid metabolism and sleep is studied in type 2 diabetes patients with insomnia. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Ethics Committee of the E. Wolfson Medical Centre Holon, approved on 01/11/1995 (ref: 5471) |
| Condition | Type 2 diabetes mellitus, insomnia |
| Intervention | In a randomised, double-blind, crossover study, the subjects were treated for 3 weeks with 1 tablet per night of 2 mg prolonged-release melatonin (Circadin®) (oral) or placebo, with one week washout period in between. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure | Sleep efficiency (Time Frame: 3 weeks). Efficacy of sleep quality was objectively monitored by a wrist actigraphy device (Somnitor™). Sleep efficiency is the percentage of time patients were asleep while in bed as scored by the actigraphic sleep algorithm. |
| Secondary outcome measures | Safety. Total duration of follow-up: 3 weeks |
| Overall study start date | 01/11/1995 |
