Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Narcolepsy is a sleep disorder in which patients are not able to maintain wakefulness or require treatment to maintain wakefulness during the daytime. Narcolepsy is a lifelong neurologic disease for which no cure has been clinically available. JZP441 is currently being developed for the treatment of narcolepsy type 1 (NT1). This study will assess the safety of efficacy of JZP441 in adult patients with NT1.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This Phase 1b, randomized, double-blind, sponsor-unblinded, placebo-controlled 4-way crossover study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of a range of JZP441 doses in participants with NT1. Changes in daytime sleepiness will be assessed via objective (MWT) and subjective (KSS, VAS for sleepiness) efficacy measures.
