A Switch Study From High-Sodium Oxybate to Xywav to Evaluate Changes in Blood Pressure in Participants With Narcolepsy

A Phase 4 interventional study of JZP258 in Narcolepsy, sponsored by Jazz Pharmaceuticals. Completed at 43 sites in 5 countries. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 70 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-04-24.

Study summary

The aim of this study is to quantify the change in blood pressure when participants with narcolepsy treated with high-sodium oxybate are transitioned to Xywav, a low-sodium oxybate. The results of this study may provide health care providers (HCPs), patients, and payers with important new information regarding BP changes related to differences in sodium content between available oxybates for the treatment of narcolepsy.

Eligibility criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participants must be 18 to 70 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the .
  • Participants have a documented diagnosis of Type 1 or Type 2 narcolepsy that meets International Classification of Sleep Disorders (ICSD)-3 or (DSM)-5 criteria.
  • Participants must have been receiving a total dose of high-sodium oxybate (eg, XYREM) of 6 to 9 g/night (inclusive) with twice-nightly dosing for a minimum of 6 consecutive weeks prior to screening.
  • If currently treated with stimulants and/or alerting agents or other medications known to affect BP, participant must have been taking the same dosing regimen for at least 2 months prior to screening and agree to take the same dose throughout the study.
  • If currently taking stable doses of antihypertensive therapies, participant must maintain these treatments at the same dose throughout the study unless otherwise advised by their medical care
  • Participant is male or female. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, if she is a woman of nonchildbearing potential or is a woman of and using a method that is highly effective.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • History or presence of any acutely unstable medical condition, behavioral or psychiatric disorder (including active suicidal ideation), or surgical history that could affect the safety of the participant or interfere with study assessments or the ability of the participant to complete the study based on the judgment of the investigator.
  • Presence of significant cardiovascular disease or cardiovascular condition that in the investigator's opinion may jeopardize participant safety in the study, including screening results.
  • Presence of atrial fibrillation detected on screening electrocardiogram (ECG).
  • Presence of resistant hypertension.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(5)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

DSM diagnostic criteria

The American Psychiatric Association’s manual of mental health diagnoses. DSM-5 (2013, revised as DSM-5-TR in 2022) replaced DSM-IV, and some studies still name the older edition. “Meets DSM criteria for …” means diagnosed by that edition’s diagnostic criteria, usually by a clinician in an interview.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    JZP258

    Eligible participants will be switched, on a gram-for-gram basis, from their prescribed twice-nightly high-sodium oxybate (such as xyrem) to Xywav. Participants who, in the opinion of the investigator, require an adjustment to their Xywav dosing, can increase or decrease their dose by 1.5 grams per night as long as the participant's total nightly dose is between 6 to 9 grams per night.

    Drug: JZP258

Interventions

  • DrugJZP258

    0.5 g/ml calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium oxybates oral solution
