Routes of
administration| Oral[1]
Drug class| Orexin receptor agonist

TAK-994 is an orexin receptor agonist which is under development by Takeda for the treatment of narcolepsy.[2][3] It is a small-molecule and orally active compound and acts as a highly selective agonist of the orexin receptor 2 (OX2) (>700-fold selectivity over the orexin receptor 1 (OX1)).[2][3][4][1] TAK-994 is related to danavorexton (TAK-925).[5] The compound reached phase 2 clinical trials for narcolepsy.[6] However, clinical development was discontinued in October 2021 for safety reasons.[5][7][8][9][10] The chemical structure of TAK-994 has yet to be disclosed.[4]
