Brief Summary:

The main aim of this study is to see how TAK-861 works on symptoms of narcolepsy, including excessive daytime sleepiness and cataplexy. Approximately 100 participants will take part in the study across North America, Europe and Asia Pacific.

The treatment (TAK-861 or placebo) will be administered for 8 or 12 weeks. After this treatment period the participant will have the option to participate in a separate, long- term extension study during which all participants will be treated with TAK-861.


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Narcolepsy Type 1 Drug: TAK-861 Drug: Placebo Phase 2

Detailed Description:

The drug being tested in this study is called TAK-861. This study will look at the effect of TAK-861 on improvement in narcolepsy symptoms, including excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and number of cataplexy episodes.

The study will enroll approximately 100 patients. Participants will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to one of the five treatment groups which will remain undisclosed to the participant and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need):

  • TAK-861 Dose 1
  • TAK-861 Dose 2
  • TAK-861 Dose 3
  • TAK-861 Dose 4
  • Placebo (dummy inactive pill) - this is a tablet that looks like the study drug but has no active ingredient

This multi-center trial will be conducted worldwide. The overall time to participate in this study is up to 23 weeks. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic during the treatment period and then will either enroll in a long-term extension study in which all participants will receive TAK-861 or have 2 final visits 7 and 28 days after last dose of study drug for follow-up assessments.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from Baseline to Week 8 in Mean Sleep Latency from the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 8 ]
    The MWT evaluates a person's ability to remain awake under soporific conditions for a defined period of time. Because there is no biological measure of wakefulness, wakefulness is measured indirectly by the inability or delayed tendency to fall asleep. This tendency to fall asleep is measured via electroencephalography-derived sleep latency in the MWT. The MWT consists of four 40-minute sessions done 2 hours apart. Sleep latency in each session will be recorded. Participants will be required to stay awake in between the 4 sessions.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from Baseline to Week 8 in Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) Total Score [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 8 ]
    The ESS provides individuals with 8 different situations of daily life and asks them how likely they are to fall asleep in those situations (scored 0 to 3) and to try to imagine their likelihood of dozing even if they have not actually been in the identical situation; the scores are summed to give an overall score of 0 to 24. Higher scores indicate stronger subjective daytime sleepiness, and scores below 10 are considered to be within the normal range.

  2. Weekly Cataplexy Rate at Week 8 [ Time Frame: Week 8 ]
  3. Occurrence of at Least One Related Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) [ Time Frame: Baseline up to approximately 16 weeks ]
    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product. A TEAE is defined as any event emerging or manifesting at or after the initiation of treatment with a study intervention or medicinal product or any existing event that worsens in either intensity or frequency following exposure to the study intervention or medicinal product.
