2420 Examining characteristics of placebo effects on trauma-related insomnia in a suvorexant trial

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The aims of this project are to: (1) examine placebo effects on subjective and objective outcome measures, (2) determine if an increase in the placebo is associated with changes in benefit, (3) evaluate if the trauma related insomnia placebo group in our study has different side effect reports compared with insomnia placebo participants in previous suvorexant trials, and (4) (Exploratory) examine associations between the placebo group’s characteristics (e.g., trauma/PTSD severity, demographics) and placebo effects. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The parent study is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial (clinicaltrials.gov ID: NCT02704754) of suvorexant for treatment of adults (age 18–55) with insomnia that started or worsened after trauma exposure
