Idorsia and Mochida enter into a license agreement for the supply, co-development and co-marketing of daridorexant in Japan - Seite 2

Naoyuki Mochida, President of Mochida commented:
“We are excited to have entered into the agreement with Idorsia for the supply, co-development and co-marketing of daridorexant. Since general internal medicine and psychiatry, where insomnia patients are concentrated, are our priority areas, we believe that our experience will be of great use. We will endeavor to provide the drug to Japanese patients suffering from insomnia.”

At present daridorexant is in a global (excluding Japan) Phase 3 confirmatory program and a Phase 2, dose confirmation study in Japanese patients. Both are expected to have data reading out as of mid-2020.
