Alkermes Reports Positive Results for LUMRYZ in Phase 3 Study
Alkermes announced positive topline results from the REVITALYZ double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized withdrawal, multicenter phase 3 study evaluating the investigational use of LUMRYZ extended-release oral suspension in adults with idiopathic hypersomnia. LUMRYZ met the study's primary endpoint, demonstrating statistically significant improvements in excessive daytime sleepiness compared to placebo as measured by the change in Epworth Sleepiness Scale score. "The data from REVITALYZ demonstrate the potential utility of once-nightly LUMRYZ as an effective treatment for excessive daytime sleepiness associated with IH, building upon its established therapeutic value in narcolepsy," said Richard K. Bogan, M.D., FCCP, FAASM, Principal of Bogan Sleep Consultants, LLC and Associate Clinical Professor at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine. "This is a community with limited approved therapeutic options. These findings constitute an important contribution to the clinical understanding of treatment approaches for patients with IH, for whom disruptive symptoms present particular treatment challenges."
