Main Criteria for Inclusion:
To be eligible for randomization on Day 1, subjects must:
Be male or female subjects aged 18 to 65 years (inclusive), at the time of informed consent.
Be judged in good health by the investigator based on clinical evaluations including laboratory safety tests. See Section 7.1 for details.
Have a body mass index =18.0 and =40.0 kg/m2 at the screening visit).
Have a diagnosis of NT1 (PARTS A-C) or NT2 (PART D) by PSG/ multiple sleep latency test (MSLT)
performed within the past 10 years meeting the minimal acceptable criteria for the proper performance of the PSG/MSLT as outlined by the International Classification of Sleep Disorders, 3rd edition criteria. Note: If there is a potential subject with a NT1 or NT2 whose diagnostic nPSG/MSLT was performed more than 10 years ago or is not available, special exemptions, ie, ability of the site to repeat the diagnostic PSG/MSLT will be considered on a case-by-case basis after discussions between the investigator and the sponsor or designee.
Have =10 ESS score at Day -1.
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotype should test positive for HLA-DQB1*06:02 - (positive results for either homozygous or heterozygous alleles will be considered positive and acceptable). However, if the HLA test is negative (i.e. negative for the heterozygous allele) and the PI feels strongly that the subject has narcolepsy with cataplexy (NT1) then a discussion should be initiated between the PI and the sponsor or designee about the advisability of doing a spinal tap to determine the subject's cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) orexin-1 (OX-1) level.
If the CSF result shows the OX-1 concentration is <110 pg/mL then the diagnosis of NT1 is established allowing the subject to be enrolled and randomized, If the CSF OX-1 concentration is >110 pg/mL then the subject will not be allowed to continue in the study (Parts A, B, C)
During the screening period, the subject must have 4 or more partial and/or complete episodes of cataplexy/week after washout of anticataplexy medications, averaged over 2 consecutive weeks minimum, with a =80% compliance rate in completion of the self-reported electronic diary for cataplexy episodes (Parts A, B, and C)
Be willing to discontinue all medications used for the treatment of NT1 or NT2.
BP <140 mmHg (systolic) and <90 mmHg (diastolic). The subject may have a history of hypertension and be on antihypertensive medication treatment as long as the BP meets these criteria. BP measurements should be obtained after the subject has been resting for a minimum of 10 minutes and will be repeated 3 times. The median BP obtained will be used.
Are the trial subjects under 18? no
Number of subjects for this age range:
F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 202
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 0
A subject must be excluded from participating in the study if the subject:
Has a positive pregnancy test or is a lactating/nursing woman.
Has a known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation of TAK-994 or related compounds.
Has a risk of suicide according to endorsement of Item 4 or 5 of the screening/baseline visit Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale and/or has made a suicide attempt in the previous 12 months.
Has a screening ECG with a QT interval with Fridericia’s correction method >450 ms (men) or >470 ms
(women).
Has a resting heart rate outside of the range of 40 to 100 beats per minute, confirmed on repeat testing within a maximum of 30 minutes.
Has renal creatinine clearance =50 mL/min.
Has LFTs (alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase) higher than 1.0× ULN at screening.
Is an excessive (>600 mg/day) caffeine user 1 week before the study screening.
Has a history of cancer (does not apply to carcinoma in situ that has been resolved without further treatment or basal cell skin cancer); these subjects may be included after approval by the sponsor or designee.
Has past or current epilepsy or seizure, except for febrile seizure in childhood.
Has a lifetime history of major psychiatric disorder (such as bipolar disorder or schizophrenia), a current active major depressive disorder (MDD), or has had active MDD in the past 6 months.
Has a clinically significant history of head injury or head trauma per the judgment of the investigator.
Has a history of cerebral ischemia, transient ischemic attack, intracranial aneurysm, or arteriovenous
malformation; known coronary artery disease, a history of myocardial infarction, angina, cardiac rhythm abnormality, or heart failure.
Has current or recent (within 6 months) gastrointestinal disease expected to influence the absorption of drugs.See Section 7.1 for details.
Used any product with stimulating or sedating properties within 7 days or 5 times the elimination half-lives or anticataplexy agents within 14 days or 5 times the elimination half-lives, whichever is longer, before baseline.(exemptions listed in Section 7.3 apply). Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and tricyclic antidepressants will be tapered off before the washout period, which is at least 14 days or 5 times the elimination half-lives before baseline, whichever is longer. Subjects on fluoxetine (any dose) or on =300 mg per day of venlafaxine will be excluded due to the drug’s long elimination half-life or clinically significant tapering/washout difficulties.
Sodium oxybate must be discontinued at least 4 weeks before baseline.
Be unwilling to abstain from driving and operating dangerous or hazardous machinery during study
participation, starting from when narcolepsy medications are discontinued and extending until after the follow-up visit (Day 35 ±2 days or Day 63 ±2 days as applicable).
Has a medical disorder (including moderate to severe sleep apnea syndrome), other than narcolepsy, associated with excessive daytime sleepiness, or has any other medical condition (eg, anxiety, depression, epilepsy, heart disease, or significant hepatic, pulmonary, or renal disease) that requires the subject to take excluded medications or at the time of screening the subject is being treated with nasal /oro-nasal positive airway pressure (PAP) for any reason. See Section 7.1 for details)
Has a usual bedtime later than 2400 (12:00 AM, midnight) or an occupation requiring nighttime shift work or var
