Testing social understanding in narcolepsy and hypersomnia
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study compares “social cognition” (how people recognize and understand others’ thoughts and feelings) in adults with narcolepsy or idiopathic hypersomnia. It may help researchers better understand how these conditions can affect everyday social interactions.

This study looks at how narcolepsy or idiopathic hypersomnia affects thinking and cardiovascular health, and how usual treatment medications may change those outcomes. It may help researchers understand risks and benefits of common hypersomnia therapies.
This study asks adults with narcolepsy about their experiences during regular check-ins and electronic reporting. It may help researchers better understand what patients go through and improve future care.
This study follows people with frequent daytime sleepiness (sometimes from narcolepsy or hypersomnia) and compares them with matched healthy people, including some with sleep apnea. The goal is to better understand what causes sleepiness and to improve how these conditions are recognized and measured.
This study looks at how common sleep disorders affect children and teens. It may help us understand and treat conditions like poor sleep, tiredness during the day, and other sleep issues.
This study tests a new drug called E2086 to see if it can help reduce daytime sleepiness and sudden muscle weakness in adults with narcolepsy. It involves two groups: people with cataplexy (type 1) and those without (type 2).
This trial checks a new kind of paper-and-pen (or computer-based) test to better measure thinking and social/behavior skills in people with certain brain diseases. It may help researchers improve how these skills are tracked and understood over time.
