Filter by:The study aimed to examine the efficacy and safety of tVNS as a complementary approach for NT1 by conducting a double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled trial. The specific objectives of the study were as follows: To evaluate the effects of complementary tVNS on the ability to maintain wakefulness, severity of narcolepsy, mood and quality of life in patients with NT1
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.
Narcolepsy Type 1 (NT1) is a rare chronic neurological disorder resulting from the selective loss of hypocretin neurons. Patients with NT1 suffer from excessive daytime sleepiness, disrupted nighttime sleep, and cataplexy (emotionally triggered episodes of muscle atonia). The disease is associated with numerous comorbidities such as obesity, metabolic disorders, anxiety-depressive disorders, and attentional disorders, all of which have a strong impact on quality of life.
The study is the first attempt in post-Soviet Russian history to collect and analyze the existing available data of narcolepsy cohort in order to get prove characteristics of narcolepsy in Russia according to known data. Investigators created the system of national narcolepsy centers in Russia - Russian narcolepsy network, with a purpose of collecting clinical and neurophysiological data with subsequent analyze and formation of Russian narcolepsy profile.
The aim of this pilot study is to test the benefit of behavior therapy-oriented, method-integrated psychotherapy in an outpatient group setting in patients with narcolepsy type 1. Therefore we collect and evaluate initial data on its effectiveness on the disease in terms of specific symptomatology, emotion regulation, health-related quality of life, and disease processing/acceptance.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether portable devices can provide measurements at home similar to those taken in the clinic, in particular in participant with NT1, and to investigate night-to-night changes in sleep patterns using these devices at home. This study may enable future at-home studies and ultimately lead to a decreased burden on the people who need these measurements.
