DAW1033D in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
- Conditions
- Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
- Interventions
- Drug: Placebo oral capsuleDrug: DAW1033D oral capsule
- Registration Number
- NCT03383887
- 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 DAW1033D administered before sleep on OSA phenotype traits and OSA severity during sleep.

Group Intervention Description Placebo Placebo oral capsule Placebo capsule 30 minutes before sleep DAW1033D DAW1033D oral capsule DAW1033D capsule 30 minutes before sleep
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI, Events/Hour of Sleep) 1 night Based on previous studies the investigators anticipate that DAW1033D will reduce AHI more effectively in subjects with moderate sleep apnea, and mild to moderate pharyngeal collapsibility. AHI describes the frequency of obstruction of the upper airway during sleep and is commonly used to describe the presence and severity of obstructive sleep apnea.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Collapsibility of the Upper Airway: VPassive 1 night Ventilation when ventilatory drive is relatively low during sleep
