The decision follows positive Phase IIb trial results, where TAK-861 showed significant improvements in wakefulness and other key metrics compared to placebo in patients with narcolepsy type 1.

Market Opportunities:

The diagnosis of narcolepsy is growing significantly which is creating a major market opportunity. Narcolepsy often goes undiagnosed for around 15 years on average due to lack of awareness and complex symptoms. However, diagnosis rates have improved significantly in recent years due to increased awareness among doctors and patients. Between 2000 and 2005, diagnosis rates increased by 50% according to the Mayo Clinic. This is expected to further accelerate given ongoing education and diagnostic improvements.

There have been important advances in treatment options for narcolepsy which is driving the market. Traditionally, stimulants were the main treatment method but newer drug classes like sodium oxybate and novel mechanisms are becoming available. Sodium oxybate received FDA approval in 2002 and has become a standard treatment, though expensive. Other newer options like Pitolisant and solriamfetol are offering alternatives. Investments in the development of alternative treatments like gene therapy also promise hope for improved outcomes over the long run.
