DAW1033B2 in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
Interventions
Drug: DAW1033B2 oral capsule
Drug: Placebo oral capsule
Registration Number
NCT03426631
Lead Sponsor
Brigham and Women's Hospital
Brief Summary

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common and has major health implications but treatment options are limited. OSA patients show a marked reduction in upper airway (UA) dilator muscle activity at sleep onset and this phenomenon leads to increased collapsibility of UA compared to normal subjects. In this protocol the investigators will test the effect of DAW1033B2 administered before sleep on OSA phenotype traits and OSA severity during sleep.

Primary Outcome Measures

Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI, Events/Hour of Sleep)1 night

Based on previous studies the investigators anticipate that DAW1032B2 will reduce AHI more effectively in subjects with moderate sleep apnea, mildly obese (BMI\<32), Vpassive \> 50% of Veupnea (ventilation during eupneic ventilatory drive)
