Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is a debilitating symptom affecting psychosocial functioning and quality of life in 70 to 100% of cancer patients during and following treatment. We examined the effect of 200 mg of modafinil daily on the severity of CRF. We conducted a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III clinical trial to examine the effect of modafinil on patient-reported fatigue in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. A sample of 877 cancer patients beginning chemotherapy at 23 geographically separate URCC CCOP affiliates were assessed for fatigue. Patients who reported fatigue (N=867) were randomly assigned to receive either 200 mg of oral modafinil (PROVIGIL®) daily or a placebo. Treatment began on Day 5 of Cycle 2 and ended after Day 7 of Cycle 4. Fatigue and depression were assessed during Cycles 2 to 4 using psychometrically valid measures. Group differences (treatment versus control) in the worst level of fatigue during the previous week at Cycle 4 were examined using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) adjusting for baseline fatigue (Cycle 2). 631 patients (315 modafinil, 316 placebo) provided evaluable data. ANCOVA showed a significant interaction between treatment condition and baseline fatigue (p = 0.017), where patients with severe baseline fatigue (n=458) benefited from modafinil while patients with mild or moderate fatigue did not. Modafinil had no statistically significant effect on depression (p > 0.05). Modafinil may be useful in controlling CRF in patients presenting with severe fatigue but not in patients with mild or moderate fatigue.
