Sleep Efficiency. Both doses of SILENORTM achieved a statistically significant improvement compared to placebo in SE at the first time point. These effects were also statistically significant at the last time point following 12 weeks of nightly administration. Both doses of SILENORTM also achieved statistically significant results compared to placebo in SE for the final third of the night as measured at the first time point. This effect was maintained throughout the clinical trial for the 3 mg dose. Subjective Total Sleep Time. SILENORTM 3 mg achieved a statistically significant improvement compared to placebo of sTST at the first time point. Both doses achieved a statistically significant improvement at week four and at the last time point following 12 weeks of nightly administration. Latency to Sleep Onset. SILENORTM achieved statistically significant results compared to placebo in LSO in the outpatient setting for the 3 mg dose. Both doses achieved a statistically significant improvement at week four and at the last time point following 12 weeks of nightly administration. Patient-Reported Clinical Global Impression. SILENORTM achieved statistically significant improvements relative to placebo for patient-reported CGI measuring the percentage of patients reporting improved sleep. These differences were statistically significant for the 1 mg dose at nights 57 and 85, and for the 3 mg dose at all time points assessed. Clinician-Reported Clinical Global Impression. SILENORTM achieved improvements relative to placebo for clinician-reported CGI measuring the percentage of patients with a moderate or marked improvement. These improvements relative to placebo were observed at nights 29, 57 and 85 for the 1 mg dose, and at all time points measured for the 3 mg dose. We did not assess these variables for statistical significance. Safety. SILENORTM was well tolerated in this clinical trial. The incidence of adverse events was comparable to placebo. There were no statistically significant differences relative to placebo in next day residual effects. No amnesia or memory impairment was reported in the SILENORTM treated group, and there were no differences compared to placebo in weight gain. Phase 2 Clinical Trial Results Prior to the initiation of our Phase 3 clinical trial program for SILENORTM, we completed two Phase 2 randomized, multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-response clinical trials in a sleep laboratory setting in patients with primary sleep maintenance insomnia. One clinical trial evaluated SILENORTM in adults and the other in the elderly. The goal of these clinical trials was to evaluate a range of sleep efficacy parameters, and to evaluate the safety and tolerability profile of various strengths of doxepin 1 mg, 3 mg and 6 mg ; . All patients participated in four double-blind treatment periods three dosages of low-dose doxepin as well as placebo ; using a crossover design. Each patient received, in a random fashion, all clinical trial doses including placebo in a sleep laboratory setting, and the clinical trial included a five-or 12-day drug-free period between each dose designed to assure drug clearance. Results of the Phase 2 clinical trials can be summarized as follows: Adult Phase 2 Clinical Trial 67 patients ; Wake After Sleep Onset. WASO at all tested dosages of SILENORTM 1 mg, 3 mg and 6 mg ; showed statistically significant improvements as compared to placebo 1 mg: p 0.009; 3 mg and 6 mg: p 0.0001 ; . The mean number of minutes of WASO for placebo was 61 minutes, as compared to 47 minutes at 1 mg, 39 minutes at 3 mg and 38 minutes at 6 mg dosages of SILENORTM. Total Sleep Time. TST improved significantly at all SILENORTM dosages 1 mg: p 0.0005; 3 mg and 6 mg: p 0.0001 ; as compared to placebo. The mean number of minutes of TST for placebo was 390 minutes, as compared to 408 minutes at 1 mg, 415 minutes at 3 mg and 418 minutes at 6 mg dosages of SILENORTM. Sleep Efficiency. SE was measured for the entire night, and analyzed for the initial, middle and final thirds of the night. All dosage levels of SILENORTM showed a significant improvement in SE for the entire night 1 mg: p 0.0005; 3 mg and 6 mg: p 0.0001 ; . As measured in percentages, the mean SE for placebo was 81.2%, as compared to 84.9% at 1 mg, 86.5% at 3 mg and 87.2% at 6 mg dosages of SILENORTM. SILENORTM 12.

All patients gave written informed consent prior to screening assessments. Those patients meeting screening criteria n 184 ; completed PSG evaluation to determine whether they met PSG screening criteria. Two consecutive nights of PSG screening were conducted; patients were required to have a latency to persistent sleep LPS ; 10 min, a wake time during sleep WTDS ; 60 min with no night 45 min and a total sleep time TST ; 240 and 410 min in order to be eligible for randomization. Patients were excluded from the study during PSG screening if they had periodic limb movement disorder 10 periodic limb movements with arousal per hour of sleep ; or sleep apnea 10 apnea hypopnea events per hour of sleep ; . Sixty-seven patients met all entry criteria and were randomly assigned to one of four treatment sequences in a 1: ratio using a Latin square design. Enrollment from the 11 investigational sites ranged from 2 to 11, with a mean of 6.1 patients per site. The Institutional Review Board for each study site approved the protocol, and the study was carried out in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonisation of Good Clinical Practices. Patients were compensated for their participation. Procedure Eligible patients were randomized to a treatment sequence such that all patients received all treatments doxepin 1 mg, 3 mg, and 6 mg, and placebo ; . Each patient completed five 2-day assessment periods including single-blind placebo screening period and 4 treatment periods ; with a 5- or 12-day drug-free interval between Treatment Periods. During each Treatment Period, patients received 2 consecutive nights of study drug dosing, followed by 8 hours of PSG recording in a sleep laboratory. Efficacy assessments were made at each visit, and safety assessments were performed throughout the study. Patients were allowed to leave the sleep laboratory during the day. A final study visit was performed for patients either after they completed the 4 Treatment Periods or prematurely discontinued from the study.

Tsutsui et al. body tumorigenesis in mice. Their experimental system allows the isolation and characterization of definitive preneoplastic cells. Their studies indicate that preneoplastic cells at the earliest time they can be detected, perhaps at initiation, show numerical changes in chromosomes. This study, along with our results, provides a possible link aneuploidy ; among chemical carcinogenesis, hormonal carcinogenesis, and foreign body tumorigen esis. Cell hybrid studies have clearly demonstrated that when nor mal cells are fused with tumor cells, cancer is suppressed 65 ; . The expression of tumorigenicity is controlled by the presence of specific chromosomes, which, if lost during division of the hybrid cell, result in the reexpression of the malignant state 66 ; . It not surprising, therefore, that chromosome segregation may be important in neoplastic development of preneoplastic cells. Significance of Aneuploidy in Cancer. Why might aneuploidy be important in neoplastic development? Aneuploidy clearly rep resents an important genetic insult to humans, as evidenced from the relationship between aneuploidy and developmental defects, e.g., Down's syndrome and spontaneous abortions 13 ; . It should be remembered that the latter represents death of the organism, but not necessarily that of the cell. The possible relationship between aneuploidy and defects in cellular differen tiation may be an important aspect of cancer and has been discussed previously by Barrett 3 ; . A change in chromosome number may affect cellular regulation by a number of mechanisms. First, aneuploidy will alter gene balance, and gains or losses of chromosomes alter the amount of specific cell products in a cell 22, 25 ; . If these products are critical in the homeostasis of cell division and differentiation, an aneuploid cell may achieve a proliferative advantage over its surrounding cells and begin to grow clonally. Second, as originally proposed by Ohno 56 ; , aneuploidy might facilitate expression of recessive phenotypes by inducing hemizygosity in a cell. The recessive nature of tumorigenicity in cell hybrids and the role of chromosome loss in reexpression of malignancy in cell hybrids may support this hypothesis 65 ; . A third possibility is that the effect of aneuploidy is indirect. It has been suggested that aneuploidy affects the rate of DNA replication 28, 75 ; in cells, and that it increases the genetic instability in a cell, resulting in further chromosomal alterations 26, 37 ; . Also, it is possible that an increase or decrease in chromosome number could alter nuclear organization, which is now recognized as an important aspect in contlrol of DNA replication and transcription 57 ; . It very difficult to rule out aneuploidy as a result of, rather than a cause of, neoplastic development. However, we feel that the repeated findings of nonrandom aneuploidy in a variety of preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions induced by a variety of diverse carcinogenic insults chemical, viral, hormonal, and for eign body ; indicate that these changes are important in carcino genesis. Since many carcinogens can induce aneuploidy, it seems important to consider the role of induced aneuploidy in carcinogenesis. Klein 40 ; has stressed that in murine T-cell leukemia, a common cytogenetic change trisomy 15 ; is found with diverse initiating agents spontaneous, viral, and chemical ; . Since all these agents can induce aneuploidy, the role of aneu ploidy in the initial phases of tumor development should be further studied. Whether aneuploidy induction by chemicals is the primary event in neoplastic development, or only facilitates the progression of spontaneous or induced changes, does not 3820 diminish its importance in neoplastic progression. For the past decade, particular emphasis has been placed on the role of gene mutations as the basis for the somatic mutation theory of carcinogenesis. Recently, more attention has been given to the role of gene rearrangements and chromosomal aberrations in cancer. We hope that in the future all the contri bution of types of genetic damage, including aneuploidy, will be considered. Our studies support a role for aneuploidy induction in DES carcinogenesis. Other chemical carcinogens may act via this mechanism as well. REFERENCES and pioglitazone.

Antidepressants are used to manage a variety of symptoms and syndromes other than psychiatric disorders. They are particularly useful in controlling functional symptoms, i.e., those with no definable pathological explanation.1, 2 Examples include irritable bowel syndrome, functional dyspepsia, and fibromyalgia. Antidepressants also are used to manage chronic pain syndromes, whether the pain is of unexplained origin or related to a defined medical condition. These agents have an important role in migraine prophylaxis and also have been used to suppress unexplained nausea and vomiting associated with functional gastrointestinal conditions.3 Consequently, it is not surprising that antidepressants have been offered to patients with Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome CVS ; , and fortunately they have proven useful for both children and adults. Two important observations are nearly uniform Receptor Affinities * when antidepressants are used for management of somatic non-psychiatric ; symptoms, observations o 3 Amitriptyline Imipramine Doxepin - that hold true for CVS.4 The first is that benefits on amines the physical symptoms can be independent of the o drugs' psychiatric effects. Although ratings on - 2 Nortriptylin Desipramine amines e anxiety and depression scales may improve during antidepressant therapy, the benefits on pain, nausea, * For acetylcholine, histamine, and -adrenergic receptors and vomiting, for example, typically are unrelated to Figure 1. Commonly used TCAs in the United States. Secondary amines are metabolites of tertiary these changes. Active psychiatric symptoms are not amines and have less affinity for the neural receptors responsible for many side effects. required for drug efficacy, and, in fact, may interfere with a positive response. The second observation is that not all antidepressants are equivalent in their ability to reduce somatic complaints.4, 5 The tricyclic antidepressants TCAs ; , such as amitriptyline, nortriptyline, or desipramine, appear particularly useful, even in low daily dosages that would be considered ubtherapeutic from the psychiatric standpoint. Onset of action with TCAs often is rapid, corroborating an action independent of usual anti-depressant effect and a characteristic not typically seen with more con-temporary antidepressants, such as the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors SSRIs ; . In CVS, clinical experience has been restricted almost exclusively to the TCAs.6, 7 No single TCA has surfaced as superior to the other for the syndrome, although amitriptyline is most often utilized. At least some attenuation of episode severity or frequency is observed in 80% of patients treated with these agents. Tricyclic antidepressants are used for maintenance therapy not acutely to abort episodes. This high success rate with open-label use of TCAs only can be attained through careful dosage and drug adjustments depending on individual patient response. My experience in using these medications is restricted to older children and adults, but many of the treatment principles apply across all ages. One of the most common errors in clinical practice is failure to maximize the use of TCAs, possibly the most beneficial maintenance medication available for CVS. Failures are too often declared and treatment abandoned for unsatisfactory response at a suboptimal dose or when side effects interfere with therapy yet rational adjustment in drug or dosage has not occurred. The first error relates to dosage. CVS typically responds to TCAs at a low daily dosage, the average adult dosage being 50 mg per day for drugs in this class.6 However, the dosage range needed for response is large. What is a suitable "low dosage" for one patient may not necessarily be the correct dosage for another.
