A debilitating, chronic disorder mediated by the irreversible loss of hypocretin/orexin (ORX) neurons, narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) is often misdiagnosed or underdiagnosed. Moreover, while there are a number of available therapies for NT1, many are associated with adverse effects and are symptomatic. However, novel agents that target the pathophysiology of NT1 have demonstrated efficacy and safety profiles in recent studies.
Join our expert faculty for this virtual Care Team Forum℠ symposium, featuring a series of panel discussions on recognition, pathophysiology, and treatment of NT1. Each panel topic will be augmented by the perspectives of an experienced patient with NT1, who will share valuable teaching moments from their therapeutic journey.
