This disorder is caused due to neurodegeneration from the accumulation of tau protein in the brain. A recent study found that dual orexin receptor antagonists can benefit patients with this condition. These drugs reduced the time to fall asleep and improved the duration and quality of sleep in mouse models, raising hopes for testing these FDA-approved drugs in humans.
