    Impact of Hot Flashes on Sleep and Mood Disturbance

    NCT01116401

    3 Nov 2009 to 4 Jan 2012

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

We plan to enroll premenopausal women in a trial investigating the impact of hot flashes developed in response to an injection of a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa), leuprolide (brand name: Lupron), on sleep disruption and mood. This study is designed to mimic the menopause transition. We will collect data on sleep disruption and mood changes to assess their relationship to the development of hot flashes.

Interventions

  • leuprolideDrug

Arms1

  • Experimental

    GnRH Agonist Injection

    We will be administering an injection of leuprolide acetate (a GnRH agonist) to all participants.

Primary outcomes1

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. Percent Change in Wake After Sleep Onset (WASO)

    Time frame · baseline and 4 weeks

    Registry description

    Wake after sleep onset (WASO) is calculated by averaging the number of minutes spent awake after initiating sleep each night from the two ambulatory polysomnography studies conducted at baseline and the two ambulatory polysomnography studies conducted four weeks after the GnRHa injection.

Secondary outcomes(1)
  1. Change in Montgomery-Asperg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS)

    Time frame · baseline and 4 weeks

    Registry description

    The Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale is a widely used 10-item clinician-rated scale that describes the severity of depressive symptoms. It has a range of 0-60 with higher scores indicating greater symptom burden. Participants were assessed at baseline and four weeks after the GnRHa injection in order to calculate the change in MADRS score.
