− Presentations Include New Data from the TAK-861-2001 Phase 2b Trial in Narcolepsy Type 1 Highlighting Impact on Daily Functioning Including Cognition and Sleep Quality
− Data from Long-Term Extension Study will also be Presented
− Phase 3 Trial of an Orexin Agonist for Narcolepsy Type 1 Now Enrolling Patients Globally
Takeda((TAK) will present additional data from the Phase 2b trials (TAK-861-2001,TAK-861-2002) and long-term extension (LTE) study (TAK-861-2003) of TAK-861 in narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) and narcolepsy type 2 (NT2) at Sleep Europe 2024, the 27th Congress of the European Sleep Research Society (ESRS), being held September 24-27, 2024 in Seville, Spain. TAK-861 is an investigational oral orexin receptor 2 (OX2R) selective-agonist designed to address the orexin deficiency in NT1 by selectively stimulating the orexin receptor 2. TAK-861 has the potential to be the first treatment to address the underlying pathophysiology of NT1. Based on the positive Phase 2b trial results, Takeda has initiated the FirstLight Study, a global Phase 3 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of TAK-861 in adults with NT1.
