NEJM 353:476-486,519, Czeisler,C.A.,et al, 2005
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Treatemtnw ith 200 mg of modafinil reduced the extreme sleepiness that we observed in patients with shift-work sleep disorder and resulted in a small but significant improvement in performance as compared with placebo. However, the residual sleepiness that was observed in the treated patients underscores the need for the development of interventions that are even more effective.
