A Study to Evaluate Safety, and Efficacy of SUVN-G3031 (Samelisant) in Patients With Narcolepsy With and Without Cataplexy (SUVN-G3031)

January 7, 2025 updated by: Suven Life Sciences Limited

A Phase 2, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of 2 mg and 4 mg SUVN-G3031 Compared to Placebo in Patients With Narcolepsy With and Without Cataplexy

This study is of an investigational drug called SUVN-G3031 (Samelisant) as a possible treatment for narcolepsy with cataplexy or narcolepsy without cataplexy. The main purpose of this study is to learn how well the study drug works and how safe the study drug is compared to placebo.

Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Epworth Sleepiness Scale
Time Frame: Change from baseline in the mean total ESS score at Day 14
The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is a patient-reported questionnaire consisting of 8 questions. Each of the items are rated on a 4-point scale (0-3), based on the usual chances of dozing off or falling asleep while engaged in eight different activities. The total ESS score (the sum of 8 item scores, 0-3) can range from 0 to 24. Higher values represent a worse outcome.
Change from baseline in the mean total ESS score at Day 14

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical Global Impression of Severity
Time Frame: Change from baseline in the mean CGI-S score at Day 14
The Clinical Global Impressions of Severity (CGI-S) scale is used to rate the severity of the patient's illness by clinician, on a 7-point scale with score ranging from 1 - 7. Higher values represent a worse outcome.
Change from baseline in the mean CGI-S score at Day 14
Maintenance of Wakefulness Test
Time Frame: Change from baseline in the mean MWT score at Day 14
Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) is an objective test of sleepiness that evaluates a person's ability to remain awake under soporific conditions for a defined period of time. In the MWT, time from start of the test to the time point of falling asleep will be measured, the total score can range from 0 - 30 minutes. Higher values represent a better outcome.
Change from baseline in the mean MWT score at Day 14

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Patient Global Impression of Change
Time Frame: Analysis of Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) at Day 14
The PGI-C is based on a 7-point scale, where at each time point the patient will rate the change from baseline using the following query: "Since the start of the study, my overall status is: 1 = very much better; 2 = much better; 3 = a little better; 4 = no change; 5 = a little worse; 6 = much worse; 7 = very much worse." The PGI-C assessment will be based on change observed from baseline related to excessive daytime sleepiness rather than on the totality of the disease.
Analysis of Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) at Day 14
Clinical Global Impression of Change
Time Frame: Analysis of Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) at Day 14
The CGI-C is based on a 7-point scale, where at each time point the physician will rate the change from baseline using the following query: "Compared to the patient's condition at admission to the project [prior to medication initiation], this patient's condition is: 1 = very much improved since the initiation of treatment; 2 = much improved; 3 = minimally improved; 4 = no change from baseline (the initiation of treatment); 5 = minimally worse; 6 = much worse; 7 = very much worse since the initiation of treatment." The CGI-C assessment will be based on change observed from baseline related to excessive daytime sleepiness rather than on the totality of the disease.
