Jazz Pharma, Concert Pharma Report JZP-386 Program Update
Last update: 09/12/2014 8:30:50 am
Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc (NASDAQ: JAZZ) and Concert Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
(NASDAQ: CNCE) today announced that Phase 1 clinical data generated to date
supports completing the Phase 1 evaluation of JZP-386 at the originally
planned highest dose, which was not administered in the first Phase 1 trial
due to a technical dosing issue. The existing Phase 1 clinical data was
generated in a first-in-human trial evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics,
and pharmacodynamics of JZP-386; enrollment was completed in the third
quarter. A second Phase 1 trial evaluating JZP-386 at the originally planned
highest dose is expected to be initiated in the first quarter of 2015, with
data expected in the second quarter of 2015.
JZP-386 is a deuterium-containing analog of sodium oxybate. The Phase 1
program is comparing JZP-386 to sodium oxybate versus placebo in healthy
volunteers. The companies expect that the results from the upcoming Phase 1
trial will inform the next steps in the development program for JZP-386.
Sodium oxybate is the active ingredient in Xyrem, a prescription medicine
marketed in the United States by Jazz Pharmaceuticals to treat cataplexy and
excessive daytime sleepiness in patients with narcolepsy, a serious
neurological disorder that affects approximately 1 in 2000 people in the
United States.

About Xyrem
Xyrem(R) (sodium oxybate) oral solution, CIII, is indicated for the treatment of cataplexy in narcolepsy and for the treatment of EDS in narcolepsy. Xyrem may only be dispensed to patients enrolled in the Xyrem Success Program(R). Xyrem was first approved in the United States in 2002. Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
XYREM is a Central Nervous System (CNS) depressant. In clinical trials at
recommended doses, obtundation and clinically significant respiratory
depression occurred in XYREM-treated patients. Almost all of the patients who
received XYREM during clinical trials in narcolepsy were receiving CNS
stimulants. XYREM is the sodium salt of gamma hydroxybutyrate (GHB). Abuse of
GHB, either alone or in combination with other CNS depressants, is associated
with CNS adverse reactions, including seizure, respiratory depression,
decreases in the level of consciousness, coma, and death. Because of the risks
of CNS depression, abuse, and misuse, XYREM is available only through a
restricted distribution program called the XYREM Success Program(R), using a
centralized pharmacy. Prescribers and patients must enroll in the program. For
further information go to www.XYREM.com or call 1-866-XYREM88(R)
(1-866-997-3688).
Xyrem is contraindicated in combination with sedative hypnotics or alcohol and in patients with succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency. Use caution when considering the concurrent use of Xyrem with other CNS depressants. Healthcare providers should caution patients against hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness or motor coordination within the first 6 hours of dosing or after first initiating treatment until certain that Xyrem does not affect them adversely. Xyrem is a Schedule III controlled substance. The rapid onset of sedation, coupled with the amnestic features of Xyrem, particularly when combined with alcohol, has proven to be dangerous for the voluntary and involuntary user (e.g. assault victim). Monitor patients for emergent or increased depression and suicidality and for impaired motor/cognitive function. Episodes of sleepwalking should be fully evaluated and appropriate interventions considered. Consider the amount of daily sodium intake in each dose of Xyrem in patients sensitive to salt intake.
