Orexin receptor antagonists for the treatment of insomnia and potential treatment of other neuropsychiatric indications
Abstract
In this review, we outline the role of orexin receptor antagonists in disorders of sleep/wake and other potential neuropsychiatric conditions, with a focus on suvorexant, which is currently the only approved agent in this class. The efficacy of suvorexant was established in Phase 2-3 trials with treatment durations ranging from 1 to 12 months in patients with insomnia. Suvorexant is effective at improving sleep assessed by patient self-report and by polysomnography, with generally little effect on underlying sleep architecture. The main side-effect is next day somnolence. With the growing realization of the important connections between sleep and other disorders, studies are ongoing to explore this novel mechanism in other disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and depression.

Suvorexant can be an effective treatment for the behavioral and psychological symptoms associated with Alzheimer's disease.
“It can therefore be said that Suvorexant can be an effective treatment for the behavioral and psychological symptoms associated with AD (Herring et al., 2019).”
From An update on the novel and approved drugs for Alzheimer disease (2022) · cites this paper as Herring et al., 2019
In a phase 3 trial of suvorexant in patients with mild to severe Alzheimer's disease with insomnia, the first and second objectives were fulfilled.
“The effectiveness of suvorexant in patients with mild to severe AD with insomnia was studied in a phase 3 trial. Merck pointed out that the first and second objectives of the case were fulfilled.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
