Assess Safety and Efficacy
+ INTUNE was a phase 3 randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind
withdrawal study
+ 213 patients were enrolled and dosed in the study, of which 139 were randomized
+ Topline results showed no statistically significant difference between the
therapy and placebo in the primary endpoint of improving excessive daytime
sleepiness (EDS)
« Positive trends favoring pitolisant were observed in other prespecified
endpoints including Idiopathic Hypersomnia Severity Scale (IHSS) and Sleep
Inertia Questionnaire (SIQ)
+ Safety and tolerability profile in adult patients with IH was consistent with
established safety profile of pitolisant

An Individualized Patient-Centric Approach to Care in the
Management of IH
What are the key considerations when developing a treatment plan for
patients with IH? What strategies can help improve treatment success?
Long sleep episodes: Assess if the patient experiences prolonged sleep episodes
at night and/or sleep inertia.
Daytime sleepiness: Evaluate the presence and severity of daytime sleepiness.
Impact on functioning: Understand how IH affects the patient's daily life and functioning.
Current medications: Take into account any medications the patient is currently taking.
ao»
Previous treatment experience: Consider the patient's history with medications
for sleepiness.
6. Long-term consequences of treatment: Consider the long-term consequences of
treatment, especially when the patient has comorbidities.
EA Each person is unique, and their treatment should be tailored to their symptoms
Medications and other treatments should target not just the obvious symptoms
(eg, sleepiness) but also broader issues that impact daily life
Healthcare providers may not be aware of the broader impacts of IH, so feel free
to bring up all issues
when making treatment decisions for patients with IH
Engage patients and consider their individual perspectives in shared decision-
Incorporate the latest clinical trial data from recently FDA-approved therapies |
making discussions to enhance treatment outcomes and patient satisfaction |
