Narcolepsy | Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis | US | 2024

Several therapies from a range of drug classes are available to address the symptoms of narcolepsy; these symptoms include excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and cataplexy. Despite the availability of many pharmacological treatments, a large proportion of patients have inadequate control of their narcolepsy symptoms, leaving opportunity for new agents to address these shortcomings. Given that narcolepsy treatment is highly individualized and complex, understanding the use of current therapies in the nuanced treatment algorithm ahead of anticipated product launches is essential. Our Treatment Algorithms research leverages national patient-level claims data to explore the uptake of key therapies in narcolepsy (e.g., modafinil, armodafinil, psychostimulants, antidepressants) and agents approved to treat EDS or EDS and cataplexy symptoms in narcolepsy (e.g., Harmony Biosciences’ Wakix; Avadel Pharmaceuticals’ Lumryz; Jazz Pharmaceuticals’ Xyrem, Xywav, and Sunosi) in both newly diagnosed and recently treated patients.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED

  • What patient shares do key therapies and brands garner by line of therapy in newly diagnosed narcolepsy patients? What are the quarterly trends in prescribing among recently treated and newly diagnosed patients?
  • How have branded agents such as Wakix, Sunosi, Xyrem, Xywav, and Lumryz been integrated into the treatment algorithm, and what are their sources of business?
  • What percentage of narcolepsy patients receive drug therapy within four years of diagnosis, and how quickly? What percentage of patients progress to later lines of therapy within four years of diagnosis?
  • What percentage of narcolepsy patients are treated with monotherapy vs. combination therapy? What are the most commonly used combinations?
  • What are the product-level compliance and persistency rates among drug-treated patients?
