Trial summary

The ExVent is an optional accessory to the O2Vent Optima MAD and provides oral Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure (EPAP). Oral EPAP with the ExVent is designed to provide upper airway support via similar mechanisms of action of nasal EPAP devices in commercial distribution, e.g., passive dilatation of the airway… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Oventus ExVent Accessory to the O2Vent Optima Device

The ExVent is an optional accessory to the O2Vent Optima MAD and provides oral Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure (EPAP). Oral EPAP with the ExVent is designed to provide upper airway support via similar mechanisms of action of nasal EPAP devices in commercial distribution, e.g., passive dilatation of the airway, which reduces flow limitation. Nasal EPAP devices are in commercial distribution as stand-alone therapies for the treatment of OSA. The oral EPAP provided by the ExVent accessory is designed to augment the OSA therapy provided by the O2Vent Optima.

Read the detailed description

Title Use of the ExVent Accessory with the O2Vent Optima Oral Appliance for the Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Investigational Device Oventus Medical ExVent Accessory (inserted into the O2Vent Optima device)

Investigator Study Sites Up to 3 investigational sites

Regulatory Status This is a non-significant risk investigational device exemption (IDE) clinical trial. FDA approval is not required, but IRB review and approval are required.

Study Design Prospective, open label, single-arm multicenter study Sample Size Up to thirty (30) subjects will be enrolled to yield a minimum of 20 evaluable subjects (mITT subjects).

Study Objective To demonstrate that the ExVent Accessory (inserted into the O2Vent Optima device) is safe and effective in treating mild to moderate OSA Patient Population Patients who have been diagnosed with mild to moderate OSA (i.e., AHI ≥ 5 and ≤ 30)

Study Overview Study Design/ Duration:

This is a prospective, open-label, single-arm study conducted at up to 3 sites. Site participation is expected to be approximately 6 months from first subject enrollment until completion of the last study visit.

Screening Phase

  1. Confirm subject meets all inclusion and exclusion criteria
  2. In the absence of a prior diagnostic PSG study within the last 6 months at the investigational site's sleep lab, subject will complete a PSG study to obtain the baseline AHI and confirm a diagnosis of mild to moderate OSA

Home Use Phase

  1. Subject uses the O2Vent Optima + ExVent for up to 3 months and logs usage hours.

PSG Night Subjects who successfully complete* the Home Use Phase will have an in-lab PSG sleep night while using the O2Vent Optima + ExVent

Primary Effectiveness Outcome Measure Change in AHI between baseline AHI and the AHI measured during the in-lab PSG sleep night using the O2Vent Optima + ExVent.

Primary Effectiveness Endpoint Statistically significant change in AHI with use of the O2Vent Optima + ExVent compared to baseline AHI value (i.e., no treatment).

Safety Outcome Measure Adverse events will be summarized descriptively in terms of type and frequency

Statistical Analysis This clinical trial is designed to determine whether the concomitant use of the O2Vent + ExVent devices results in a statistically significant reduction in AHI from the baseline value for each subject. A paired t-test will be used for this comparison.

A sample size calculation is based on data from a comparable group of patients (Lai, 2019), where it was determined that the mean change in AHI from baseline was -8.37, with a standard deviation of the paired differences of 7.73.

Setting alpha=0.05 and power=0.80, the calculated sample size is 9 subjects. Because of the imperfect predictability of historical data, to ensure adequate power this study will enroll 20 evaluable patients.

The mITT population will be used for this analysis**

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in AHI between baseline AHI and the AHI measured during the in-lab PSG sleep night using the O2Vent Optima + ExVent.

    To demonstrate that the ExVent Accessory (inserted into the O2Vent Optima device) is safe and effective in treating mild to moderate OSA. Statistically significant change in AHI with use of the O2Vent Optima + ExVent compared to baseline AHI value (i.e., no treatment).

    Measured: Two Years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adverse events will be summarized descriptively in terms of type and frequency

    Adverse events which might occur or have been known to occur with Mandibular Advancement devices include but are not limited to the following:

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ExVent in people with Sleep Apnea, Obstructive and Sleep-Disordered Breathing, run by Centre for Sleep and Chronobiology, Canada at 1 site in Canada.

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 12 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Feb 2024. 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 Canada. 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?

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

Contact Sat Sharma (6479817732, ssharma@mts.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in AHI between baseline AHI and the AHI measured during the in-lab PSG sleep night using the O2Vent Optima + ExVent. (time frame: Two Years). 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?
