Brief summary
The purpose of the study is to collect data in a real-world environment, for a digital therapeutic that delivers CBT-I through a decentralized clinical trial, open to participants with chronic insomnia.
Detailed description
This is an open-access, open-label, decentralized clinical trial to collect real-world evidence for PEAR-003A, a digital therapeutic delivering CBT-I. Potential participants will answer an online prescreening questionnaire to determine eligibility. Qualifying participants will proceed to complete 6 weekly modules through their personal mobile phone or tablet in nine weeks. A series of the assessment and questionnaires will be administered at set points during the study. Participants will be asked to complete a follow-up module about 26 weeks, and at Days 243 (6-month), 428 (12-month), 610 (18-month) and 793 (24-month) after completing treatment. A subset of approximately 34 participants may be asked to partake in a optional user experience sub study. The participant will be asked to provide study feedback by either completing a five-day diary or an interview.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) | From Baseline to Day 63 (End of Treatment) and Days 243, 428, 610, 793 (Follow-up) | Change in the Insomnia Severity Index's (ISI) total score from Baseline to End of Treatment and Follow-up. The ISI's total score ranges from 0 (not clinically significant) to 28 (clinically significant) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluate PEAR-003A Engagement Data | Baseline, Day 63, Day 243, Day 428, Day 610, Day 793 | Evaluate PEAR-003A engagement rates |
| Evaluate PEAR-003A Adherence Data | Baseline, Day 63, Day 243, Day 428, Day 610, Day 793 | Evaluate PEAR-003A adherence rates |
| Examine change in depression symptoms | Baseline, Day 63, Day 243, Day 428, Day 610, Day 793 | Change in the eight-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-8) scores from Baseline to End of Treatment and Follow-up. The PHQ's total score ranges from 0 (not clinically significant) to 24 (clinically significant) |

|---|---|---|
| To determine if there is a change in daytime sleepiness | Baseline, Day 63, Day 243, Day 428, Day 610, Day 793 | Change in Epworth Sleepiness Scale from baseline to end of treatment and follow-up. The ESS total score ranges from 0 (not clinically significant) to 24 (clinically significant) |
| To determine change in quality of life | Baseline, Day 63, Day 243, Day 428, Day 610, Day 793 | Change in quality of life as measured in The Short Form 12 (SF-12). The SF-12 summary scores range from 0-100 with higher scores representing better self-reported health |
| Examine treatment responders' data | Baseline, Day 63, Day 243, Day 428, Day 610, Day 793 | Treatment responders are those whose ISI decreased by more than 7 points. Responders ISI score will be evaluated at the end of treatment and follow-up. |
