About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled 4-Period Single-Dose Crossover Factorial Study to Evaluate the Contribution of the Individual Drug Components to the Efficacy of AD109 in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

This is a randomized, 4-period, placebo-controlled, crossover, phase 2 clinical study to examine the efficacy and safety of AD109 versus its individual components or placebo in patients with obstructive sleep apnea.

Read the detailed description

The study is designed to examine the efficacy and safety of AD109 to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The study is a four-period single-dose randomized crossover design in which patients will undergo overnight polysomnographic (PSG) testing with dosing of one of the following 4 treatments: AD109, atomoxetine, R-oxybutynin or placebo. Participants will return 2 weeks after their final crossover PSG for an end of study (EOS) visit.

Being tested
AD109, Atomoxetine, R-oxybutynin, Placebo, Digit System Substitution Test

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • AD109Drug

    Oral administration before bed

  • AtomoxetineDrug

    Oral administration before bed

  • R-oxybutyninDrug

    Oral administration before bed

  • PlaceboDrug

    Oral administration before bed

  • Digit System Substitution TestDiagnostic test

    Also called DSST

    a neuropsychological test sensitive to brain damage, dementia, age and depression where numbers are assigned symbols. Under each digit the subject should write down the corresponding symbol as fast as possible. The number of correct symbols within the allowed time is measured.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Hypoxic Burden (HB) Log10HB[(%*Min)/Hour]

    Change in Hypoxic Burden (HB) is calculated as the oxygen desaturation 'area under the curve' in association with individual apneas and hypopneas. Due to the known logarithmic distribution of HB, data are primarily expressed and analyzed as Log10HB 4%[% min/hour]. Events with 4% or greater desaturations were included in the calculation of HB.

    Measured: 1 night (treatment duration) (0-8 hours collected continuously)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AD109, Atomoxetine and R-oxybutynin in people with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by Apnimed at 7 sites in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 5 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 Jan 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 31 Jan 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Change in Hypoxic Burden (HB) Log10HB[(%*Min)/Hour] (time frame: 1 night (treatment duration) (0-8 hours collected continuously)). 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 Jan 2023.
