Summary

This was a cross-over, polysomnography (PSG) study to test the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of different doses of MK-6096 in the treatment of participants with primary insomnia. The primary efficacy hypothesis was that at least one dose of MK-6096 is superior to placebo in improving sleep efficiency (SE) as measured by PSG on Night 1 and at the end of 4 weeks of treatment (Week 4).
