Trial summary

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In people with OSA, the upper airways can narrow or close repetitively while sleeping. These breathing interruptions lead to reduction of oxygen in the blood or short arousals from sleep. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Proof-of-concept, Multi-center, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Two-way Crossover Study to Investigate the Effect Strength of BAY 2586116 on the Apnea-hypopnea-index After Repetitive Nasal Doses Compared to Placebo in 80 Valid Participants With Moderate to Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In people with OSA, the upper airways can narrow or close repetitively while sleeping. These breathing interruptions lead to reduction of oxygen in the blood or short arousals from sleep. Before a treatment can be approved for people to take, researchers do clinical trials to better understand its safety and how well it works.

In this trial, the researchers want to learn more about how well BAY2586116 works in a small number of participants with OSA. The trial will include about 160 men and women who have OSA and are at least 18 years old. Women can only be included in this trial if they are not able to have children naturally.

In this trial, the participants will take BAY2586116 and a placebo. A placebo looks like a treatment but does not have any medicine in it. All of the participants will take BAY2586116 through a nasal spray. They will also take the placebo as a nasal spray.

This will be a crossover trial. This means all the participants will take both trial treatments one after the other, but in a different order. The participants will take each treatment once a day for 7 days.

The researchers will use a measurement called the apnea-hypopnea-index (AHI) to measure the severity of the participants' OSA. The researchers will then compare the participants' AHI scores when they take BAY2586116 and when they take the placebo.

During study, the participants will visit their trial site 5 times. At these visits the doctors will take blood samples, do physical examinations and check the participants' heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG). They will also ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and if they have any medical problems. At 3 of the visits, the participants will stay at the trial site overnight. At these visits, the doctors will calculate the number of times the participants stop breathing per hour of sleep. After treatment, the participants will have a final visit 7 days later so the doctors can check their health.

BAY2586116_PlaceboExperimentalMale or female participants aged above or equal to 18 years diagnosed with moderate to severe OSA will be allocated randomly to this intervention sequence. Participants will receive BAY2586116 in treatment period 1, and placebo in treatment period 2. Each intervention will be applied at home for 6 days (+1 optional day) followed by one in-house application for the overnight PSG (polysomnography). In total, each participant will receive up to a maximum of 7 single doses (8 single doses if optional day is used) of BAY2586116 and up to 7 single doses of placebo (8 single doses if optional day is used).

What is being measured

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

  1. Responder rates for BAY2586116 and placebo

    A response is defined as reduction of apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) from baseline by ≥50%

    Measured: At day -1, and day 7 in Period 1, and day 7 in Period 2

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of participants with at least one treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) and maximum severity of TEAEs per participant

    Measured: From first application of study intervention up to 2 days after end of treatment in each period with study intervention

This pertains to scope, timepoint and process of data access. As such, Bayer commits to sharing upon request from qualified researchers patient-level clinical trial data, study-level clinical trial data, and protocols from clinical trials in patients for medicines and indications approved in the US and EU as necessary for conducting legitimate research. This applies to data on new medicines and indications that have been approved by the EU and US regulatory agencies on or after January 01, 2014. Interested researchers can use www.clinicalstudydatarequest.com to request access to anonymized patient-level data and supporting documents from clinical studies to conduct research.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing BAY2586116 in people with Sleep Apnea, Obstructive, run by Bayer at 3 sites in 2 countries.

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 9 inclusion and 15 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 26 Oct 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Germany, Switzerland. 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.

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?

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?

Responder rates for BAY2586116 and placebo (time frame: At day -1, and day 7 in Period 1, and day 7 in Period 2). 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 26 Oct 2022.
