Treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was defined as an adverse event (AE) with onset date on or after the first dose of study drug up to 14 days after the last dose of study drug. Within each treatment period, subjects with ≥2 AEs with the same preferred term were counted only once for that preferred term.

LEM5, lemborexant 5 mg; LEM10, lemborexant 10 mg; PBO, placebo.

Only those subjects who had received LEM in both Periods 1 and 2 at the indicated dose were included in this analysis.
