Trial summary

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is responsible of endothelial dysfunction, which is a independent cardio-vascular risk factor. Assessment of pulse wave velocity (PWV) and peripheral arterial tone (PAT) are study measurements of arterial stiffness, and are strong predictors of late cardiovascular events.

About this study

Official title: Long Term Effects of Positive Airway Pressure Therapies on Vascular Function in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is responsible of endothelial dysfunction, which is a independent cardio-vascular risk factor.

Assessment of pulse wave velocity (PWV) and peripheral arterial tone (PAT) are study measurements of arterial stiffness, and are strong predictors of late cardiovascular events.

This study will compare long term evolution in arterial stiffness (PWV) and endothelial dysfunction (PAT) for patients treated by Positive Airway Pressure Therapies.

Read the detailed description

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is responsible of vascular damage. Intermittent hypoxia causes oxidative stress and low-grade inflammation. By the way of increased sympathetic outflow, it's resulting endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis and an increase of arterial stiffness.

Finally these mechanisms are responsible of cardiovascular comorbidities: hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias or Left ventricular dysfunction. This patients presented coronary diseases or Strokes.

OSA characterized by intermittent hypoxia, is associated with atherosclerosis and vascular inflammation. Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) are implicated in vascular inflammation by producing oxidizing radicals and proteolytic enzymes during PMN-endothelium interactions.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is increased in activated cells and after attachment, PMNs release additional ROS inducing endothelial cell injury.

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the current "gold standard" treatment for OSA, Use of CPAP restored the respiratory flow, prevents nocturnal respiratory events and daytime symptoms.

Arterial stiffness and endothelial dysfunction are linked to obstructive sleep apnea severity with a dose-effect relationship. And meta-analyse showed significant improvements in all indices of arterial stiffness after CPAP treatment in patients with OSA.

Assessment of pulse wave velocity and peripheral arterial tone are study measurements of arterial stiffness. And are strong predictors of late cardiovascular events

The investigators will compare long term evolution in arterial stiffness (PWV) and endothelial dysfunction (Peripheral arterial tone) for patients with OSA treated by Positive Airway Pressure Therapies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Long term evolution in arterial stiffness by pulse wave velocity (time frame: 4 to 7 years from baseline assessment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Aug 2016.
