Official title
Armodafinil for Patients Starting Hepatitis C Treatment
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Fatigue is one of the most common side effects of the treatment of hepatitis C infection with pegylated interferon and ribavirin, and is a major cause of treatment discontinuation. Armodafinil is an FDA approved stimulant medication for the treatment of narcolepsy and shift-work sleep disorder. This is a randomized placebo controlled study to determine whether patients assigned to armodafinil have fewer missed doses, dose reductions or treatment discontinuation due to side effects in the first 12 weeks of treatment for hepatitis C infection than do placebo patients. Placebo patients are offered 14 weeks of open label armodafinil after Week 12.
