Show moreObjectives: This analysis characterized changes in weight in participants with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) or narcolepsy treated with solriamfetol (SunosiTM) 37.5 (OSA only), 75, 150, or 300 mg/d. Methods: In two 12-week, randomized, placebo-controlled trials and one 1-year open-label extension study, changes in weight were evaluated from baseline to end of study (week 12 or week 40 of the open -label extension [after up to 52 weeks of solriamfetol treatment]) in participants with OSA or narcolepsy. Results: After 12 weeks of solriamfetol treatment, median percent change in weight from baseline across all solriamfetol doses was-0.84%, compared with 0.54% for placebo, in participants with OSA; and-0.07%, compared with 3.08% for placebo, in participants with narcolepsy. After up to 52 weeks of solriamfetol treatment, overall median percent change in weight from baseline was-1.76%, which showed a dose-dependent pattern (75 mg, 0.57%; 150 mg,-1.2%; 300 mg,-2.5%).Results were similar in subgroups of participants with OSA or narcolepsy, with overall median percent changes in weight of-2.2% and-1.1%, respectively. After up to 52 weeks of solriamfetol treatment, the percentage of participants with weight loss >= 5% relative to baseline was 25.7% overall and increased in a dose -dependent manner (75 mg, 4.5%; 150 mg, 17.3%; 300 mg, 32.4%). Results were similar among sub-groups of participants with OSA or narcolepsy, with 26.4% and 24.2% of participants experiencing weight loss >= 5%, respectively. No weight-related treatment-emergent adverse events were serious. Conclusions: Solriamfetol treatment was associated with decreases in body weight in a dose-related manner.(c) 2022 The Authors.

Show moreObjective: Solriamfetol (formerly JZP-110), a dopamine/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, is approved in the US to improve wakefulness in adults with excessive daytime sleepiness associated with narcolepsy (75-150 mg/d) or obstructive sleep apnea (37.5-150 mg/d). In a randomized, double-blind, placebocontrolled trial in participants with narcolepsy, effects of solriamfetol on functional status, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and work productivity were evaluated.Methods: Participants with narcolepsy (N = 239) were randomized to solriamfetol 75, 150, or 300 mg, or placebo for 12 weeks. Outcome measures included the Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire short version (FOSQ-10), 36-Item Short Form Health Survey version 2 (SF-36v2), and Work Productivity and Activity Impairment questionnaire for Specific Health Problem (WPAI:SHP). A mixed-effects model with repeated measures was used for comparisons vs placebo.Results: At week 12, solriamfetol increased FOSQ-10 total score, with greatest mean difference from placebo (95% CI) at 300 mg (1.45 [0.31, 2.59]). On SF-36v2, improvements vs placebo were observed in physical component summary scores (300 mg: 2.22 [0.04, 4.41]) and subscales of role physical, general health, and vitality. On WPAI:SHP, solriamfetol 150 mg reduced overall work impairment vs placebo (-15.5 [-29.52, -1.47]), and 150 and 300 mg reduced activity impairment vs placebo (-10.05 [-19.48, -0.62] and -13.49 [-23.19, -3.78], respectively). Most treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild or moderate in severity. Common TEAEs were headache, nausea, decreased appetite, nasopharyngitis, dry mouth, and anxiety.Conclusions: Solriamfetol improved measures of functional status, HRQoL, and work productivity, particularly at the 150- and 300-mg doses. Most TEAEs were mild to moderate. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Show less
