About this study

Official title: Effect of 12 Months of Treatment With Continuous Positive Airway Pressure on Lipid Profile and Hyperuricemia in Patients With Dyslipidemia and Moderate-severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea. A Randomized, Open-labell, Parallel Clinical Trial

Clinical Trial Phase IV Indication: Moderate-severe obstructive sleep apnea and dyslipidemia.

Objectives:

Main objective: To test whether 12 months of CPAP treatment associated with conventional pharmacological treatment improves the lipid profile of patients with dyslipidemia and moderate to severe OSA.

Secondary objectives:

  • To test whether 12 months of treatment with CPAP associated with conventional pharmacological treatment improves serum uric acid concentration in patients with dyslipidemia and moderate-severe OSA.
  • To determine the additional medium- and long-term effect of CPAP on insulin resistance in patients with dyslipidemia and moderate-severe OSA.
  • To evaluate the impact of CPAP treatment on cardiovascular risk reduction in patients with dyslipidemia and moderate-severe OSA.
  • To analyze the impact of supplemental CPAP treatment on glycemic control and C-reactive protein concentration in patients with dyslipidemia and moderate-severe OSA.
  • To establish the impact of supplemental CPAP therapy on health-related quality of life in patients with dyslipidemia and moderate-severe OSA.
  • To evaluate the effect of CPAP on inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress biomarkers, sympathetic tone and intake-regulating hormones in patients with dyslipidemia and moderate-severe OSA.
  • To relate CPAP-induced changes in serum lipid and uric acid concentration to changes in basal inflammatory response, oxidative stress, sympathetic activity, and intake-regulating hormones.
  • To identify the subgroup of patients with dyslipidemia and moderate-severe OSA in whom 12 months of CPAP treatment achieves a more marked reduction in serum lipids and uric acid.

Design Randomized, parallel-group, nonblinded, controlled clinical trial with conventional treatment.

Study population Subjects aged 35 to 80 years with a diagnosis of dyslipidemia made at least six months ago and with moderate-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) not requiring CPAP treatment according to conventional indications.

Sample size: 110 patients in each treatment arm.

Treatment Patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to one of the following treatment arms:

  1. Conventional hygienic-dietary recommendations and promotion of daily physical activity.
  2. Conventional hygienic-dietary recommendations and promotion of daily physical activity, plus treatment with positive airway pressure (CPAP).

Efficiency variables

  • Main variables: LDL-cholesterol and uric acid.
  • Total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol and triglycerides.
  • Basal blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), creatinine and C-reactive protein.
  • Systemic biomarkers: inflammatory (IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α), oxidative stress (8-isoprostane), endothelial damage (endothelin, VCAM-1 and ICAM-1), sympathetic activity (neuropeptide Y) and appetite-regulating hormones (leptin, orexin A/hypocretin 1 and ghrelin).
  • Clinical questionnaires: SF-12, EuroQoL, FOSQ and IPAQ.

Safety variables

  • Clinical adverse event reporting.
  • CPAP compliance (average hours of use per day).
  • Epworth Sleepiness Questionnaire.
  • Development of cardiovascular events.
Being tested
Continuous positive airway pressure, Hygienic-dietary recommendations and daily physical activity promotion
Medical subject headings
Sleep Apnea Syndromes, Dyslipidemias, Hyperuricemia

What participants receive

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

  • Continuous positive airway pressureDevice

    Treatment will start with an empirical pressure of 8 cmH2O and, within a maximum of 3 weeks, the pressure will be adjusted by means of automatic titration, establishing the pressure corresponding to the 95th percentile.

  • Hygienic-dietary recommendations and daily physical activity promotionOther

    Hygienic-dietary recommendations on sleep and intervention for the promotion of daily physical activity, establishing walking as a goal 10,000 steps per day. To do this, they will be provided with a pedometer and asked to fill out a form with the steps walked each day. At each visit, the distance walked will be reviewed and the goal set will be reiterated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Continuous positive airway pressure and Hygienic-dietary recommendations and daily physical activity promotion in people with Sleep Apnea and Dyslipidemias, run by Hospital Universitario La Paz at 1 site in Spain.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jul 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 Spain. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Francisco Garcia-Rio, MD (+34639911718, fgr01m@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

CPAP effect on lipid profile (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 15 Jul 2024.
