  • Publication number: 20220347150
    Abstract: The invention relates generally to circadian rhythm disorders and, more particularly, to the treatment or prevention of circadian rhythm disorders based on an individual's HCN1 genotype. One aspect of the invention provides a method of treating an individual for delayed sleep time comprising: determining or having determined from a biological sample of the individual that the individual has a GG genotype at the rs12188518 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) locus; and administering to the individual once daily before a target bedtime a dose of tasimelteon effective to advance the sleep time of the individual. Other genotypes related with circadian rhythm disorders are CC at rs11248864 and AA at rs72762058.
