Study Stopped
A safety signal has emerged in Phase 2 studies of TAK-994. As an immediate precautionary measure, Takeda has suspended dosing of patients and has decided to stop Phase 2 studies early.
A Study of TAK-994 in Adults With Narcolepsy
A Dose-Blind Extension Study With Double-blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized Withdrawal Period to Evaluate the Safety and Explore the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of TAK-994 in Adults With Narcolepsy With Cataplexy (Narcolepsy Type 1)

Brief Summary
Adults with narcolepsy who have completed the TAK-994-1501 study will be able to take part in this study. The main aim of this study is to check if participants have side effects from TAK-994. Participants will take one of 3 different TAK-994 dose for 8 weeks. Then, half the participants will continue with their dose of TAK-994 and half will take a placebo. In this study, a placebo will look like a TAK-994 tablet but will not have any medicine in it. Participants will take TAK-994 or placebo for 4 weeks. Participants will visit the clinic for a final check-up 2 weeks after their last dose of TAK-994 or placebo. The study doctors will check for side effects from TAK-994 and placebo throughout the study. Participants will continue to record any narcolepsy symptoms as they did in Part B of the TAK 994-1501 study.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Number of Participants With at Least One Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) During the Active Drug Extension Period
An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participants administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (example, a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug whether or not it is considered related to the drug. A TEAE is defined as an AE with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug.
Up to 8 weeks in the Active Drug Extension Period (Weeks 1 to 8)
Number of Participants With at Least One Post-dose Markedly Abnormal Value (MAV) in Laboratory Test During the Active Drug Extension Period
Clinical laboratory tests included hematology, serum chemistry, and urinalysis. MAV criteria: Hemoglobin \<0.8×lower limit of normal (LLN), \>1.2×upper limit of normal (ULN); Hematocrit \<0.8×LLN, \>1.2×ULN; Red blood cells (RBC) count \<0.8×LLN, \>1.2×ULN; White blood cells (WBC) count \<0.5xLLN, \>1.5xULN; Platelet count \<75x10\^9/liter (L), \>600x10\^9/L; alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \>3xULN; aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \>3xULN; gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) \>3xULN; Alkaline phosphatase \>3xULN; Total bilirubin \>1.5xULN; Albumin \<25 grams per liter (g/L); Total protein \<0.8xLLN, \>1.2xULN; Creatinine \>1.5xULN; Blood urea nitrogen \>40 milligrams per deciliters (mg/dL); Sodium \<130 milliequivalents per liter (mEq/L), \>150 mEq/L; Potassium \<3.0 millimoles per liter (mmol/L), \>5.3 mmol/L; creatine phosphokinase (CPK) \>3xULN; Glucose \<50 mg/dL, \>300 mg/dL; Calcium \<7.7 mg/dL, \>11.1 mg/dL. Only categories with at least one participant with event are reported.

Only categories with at least one participant with event are reported. Baseline for this outcome measure is Day 1 of the Active Drug Extension Period.
Up to 8 weeks in the Active Drug Extension Period (Weeks 1 to 8)
