Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Delayed sleep phase syndrome (DSPS), a sleep disorder where a patient's circadian rhythm is delayed from typical day/night cycle, usually begins in the second decade of life or earlier (Thorpy et al.,1988). DSPS is characterized by habitual sleep-wake timing that is delayed, usually more than two hours, relative to conventional or socially acceptable timing (ICSD-3). Affected individuals complain of difficulty falling asleep at a socially acceptable time, as required to obtain sufficient sleep duration on a school or work night. These individuals also experience difficulty arising at a socially acceptable wake time, as required to prepare for school or work. When allowed to follow his or her preferred schedule, the patient's timing of sleep is delayed (ICSD-3). Three types of treatments are available for DSPS: chronotherapy, phototherapy, and exogenous melatonin administration (Crowley et al.,2007, Okawa and Uchiyama, 2007). Although, anti-psychotics have not been reported in the treatment of DSPS, aripiprazole (APZ), which is a second generation antipsychotic, manifests a novel mechanism of action by serving as a partial agonist of D2 receptors (Shapiro et al.,2003). Depression is reported to be the most common psychopathology associated with DSPS (Okawa and Uchiyama, 2007), and low dose APZ is reported to be effective in major depressive disorder as adjunctive therapy (Marcus et al.,2008). Therefore, we tried to treat depressive symptoms of DSPS, then, we found the improvement of DSPS and prolonged nocturnal sleep time (Takaki and Ujike, 2014). Subsequently, we extended to investigate low dose APZ for patients with hypersomnolence disorder in this study.

Results

The subjects were prescribed initially 0.5-3.0 mg of APZ once a day with subsequent dose adjustments. Total sleep time was reduced average 1.6 hour. The subjects woke up average 1.8 hour earlier in the morning and nocturnal sleep onset changed average 0.6 hour earlier. Low dose APZ reduced nocturnal sleep time and the change of sleep offset in the subjects who had prolonged sleep time and DSPS. The mechanism of action would be dopaminergic up regulation due to dopamine D3 agonistic activity. Since it is difficult for physicians to treat prolonged sleep time and DSPS, this medication would become a new therapeutic option for these patients.
