IHL-42X for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Cincinnati, Ohio
The goal of this randomised, double-blind phase II/III clinical trial is to determine the safety and efficacy of IHL-42X in subjects with obstructive sleep apnoea who are intolerant, non-compliant, or naïve to positive airway pressure.
Phase II study will be a 4-week dose-finding study comparing two dose strengths of IHL-42X to placebo. The optimal dose strength will be selected based on comparing the safety and efficacy of the two IHL-42X dose strengths to placebo over a 4-week treatment period. The three treatment groups are; IHL-42X Low dose (2.5mg dronabinol, 125mg acetazolamide), IHL-42X High dose (5mg dronabinol, 250mg acetazolamide) and Placebo. Each treatment group will enrol approximately 40 patients per treatment arm, for a total of approximately 120 patients.
The safety and efficacy results of the Phase II study will be used to select the dose strength of IHL-42X and corresponding doses of dronabinol and acetazolamide in Phase III.
Phase III study will use the optimal dose strength of IHL-42X identified in Phase II and will be compared to the component active pharmaceutical ingredients at equivalent dose strengths to those found in the IHL-42X optimal dose strength and placebo over 52 weeks. The four treatment groups are; IHL-42X (optimal dose from Phase II), Acetazolamide (equivalent dose strength to that in the IHL-42X optimal dose strength), Dronabinol (equivalent dose strength to that in the IHL-42X optimal dose strength) and placebo. The treatment groups will enrol approximately 165 patients in IHL-42X, approximately 55 patients in dronabinol, approximately 55 in acetazolamide, and approximately 165 in placebo, for a total of approximately 440 patients.

CFD Simulations for Pediatric Sleep Apnea
Cincinnati, Ohio
To create a validated computational tool to predict surgical outcomes for pediatric patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The first line of treatment for children with OSA is to remove their tonsils and adenoids; however, these surgeries do not always cure the patient. Another treatment, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is only tolerated by 50% of children. Therefore, many children undergo surgical interventions aimed at soft tissue structures surrounding the airway, such as tonsils, tongue, and soft palate, and/or the bony structures of the face. However, the success rates of these surgeries is surprisingly low. Therefore, there a need for a tool to improve the efficacy and predict which surgical option is going to benefit each individual patient most effectively. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of respiratory airflow in the upper airways can provide this predictive tool, allowing the effects of various surgical options to be compared virtually and the option most likely to improve the patient's condition to be chosen. Previous CFD simulations have been unable to provide information about OSA as they were based on rigid geometries, or did not include neuromuscular motion, a key component in OSA. This project uses real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to provide the anatomy and motion of the airway to the CFD simulation, meaning that the exact in vivo motion is modeled for the first time. Furthermore, since the modeling is based on MRI, a modality which does not use ionizing radiation, it is suitable for longitudinal assessment of patients before and after surgical procedures. In vivo validation of these models will be achieved for the first time through comparison of CFD-based airflow velocity fields with those generated by phase-contrast MRI of inhaled hyperpolarized 129Xe gas. This research is based on data obtained from sleep MRIs achieved with the subject under sedation. While sedating the patient post-operatively is slightly more than minimal risk, the potential benefits to each patient outweigh this risk. As 58% of patients have persistent OSA postsurgery and the average trajectory of OSA severity is an increase over time, post-operative imaging and modeling can benefit the patient by identifying the changes to the airway made during surgery and which anatomy should be targeted in future treatments.

Personalized Surgery for Sleep Apnea in Down Syndrome
Cincinnati, Ohio
The overall objective of this randomized clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of a personalized approach to the surgical treatment of OSA in children with Down syndrome (DS).The estimated prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children with DS ranges from 45-83%, compared to 1-6% in the general pediatric population. Untreated OSA in children has been associated with daytime sleepiness, cognitive or behavioral problems, and cardiovascular complications, all which are common in children with DS. Adenotonsillectomy (AT) is the first line treatment for OSA in children, however, most large studies of AT outcomes have excluded children with DS. Available evidence demonstrates that AT is far less effective in children with DS than in the general pediatric population, with 48 to 95% of children with DS having persistent OSA after AT. Medical treatments such as positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy are frequently inadequate or poorly tolerated in this population, so many children with DS and OSA remain untreated. Drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) enables direct observation of the sites and patterns of obstruction during sedated sleep using a flexible endoscope passed through the nose into the pharynx. DISE was developed to guide surgical decisions in adult OSA, and in recent years has also been used to design personalized surgical interventions in children. Using this DISE Rating Scale, the investigators have demonstrated that children with DS are more prone to tongue base and supraglottic obstruction than non-DS children, suggesting the need for more personalized surgical treatments that are tailored to the common sources of obstruction in this population. Several small case series demonstrate that DISE-directed surgery can be effective in treating OSA in children with DS. However, because there have been few prospective studies and no randomized trials comparing different treatment options in this population, there remains uncertainty about whether such a personalized approach leads to superior outcomes compared to the first line AT.
It is the investigators' hypothesis that personalized DISE-directed surgery that uses existing procedures to address specific fixed and dynamic anatomic features causing obstruction in each child with DS will be superior to the current first line approach of AT. This novel approach may improve OSA outcomes and reduce the burden of unnecessary AT or secondary surgery for persistent OSA after an ineffective AT.

Swallowing Exercises for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Cleveland, Ohio
This study has two parts: an observational part and an interventional part.
The goal of the observational part of the study is to look for variations in swallowing in adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and in adults who don't snore. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Are there differences in swallowing between people with OSA and people who don't snore?
* Are there differences in swallowing between people with OSA who do well with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy and those who struggle with CPAP?
This may help us better understand what causes OSA, which may help us develop alternate ways to treat or even prevent OSA. It may also help us improve care for people with OSA who struggle with CPAP. Participants will be aged 40-60 years, except women up to the age of 70 will be included in the healthy control (non-snorer) group.
Participants will:
* Undergo a type of x-ray study called a modified barium swallow study (MBS)
* Come to MetroHealth Medical Center for a measurement visit to:
* assess the strength of their tongue, lips, and cheeks
* assess the strength of their breathing muscles
* assess for restrictions in tongue mobility (tongue ties)
* observe their resting breathing
* take photos of their mouth and posture
* take videos of them drinking and eating
* Complete some questionnaires
* For successful CPAP users: we will download data from the chip in their CPAP device
* Do a home sleep test (except for successful CPAP users who have had a recent in-lab sleep test)
The goal of the interventional part of the study is to test swallowing exercises in people ages 40-60 years with OSA who struggle with CPAP. The main question it aims to answer is:
• Can swallowing exercises help people who struggle with CPAP sleep better with CPAP?
Participants will:
* Try to use CPAP for 2 weeks with individualized support
* Do all the investigations listed in the observational part of the study
* Do one or two courses of swallowing exercises, each of which would last 7 weeks. Participants will be asked to do daily exercises; exercises will take 20-30 minutes to perform.
* Try to use CPAP for 2 weeks after the course of exercises
* Repeat the investigations listed in the observational part of the study to see if changes occurred with the swallowing exercise intervention.

Mild Intermittent Hypoxia for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Detroit, Michigan
The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is high in the United States and is a major health concern. This disorder is linked to numerous heart, blood vessel and nervous system abnormalities, along with increased tiredness while performing exercise likely because of a reduced blood supply to skeletal muscles. The gold standard treatment of OSA with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in many cases does not lead to significant improvements in health outcomes because the recommended number of hours of treatment per night is often not achieved. Thus, development of novel treatments to eliminate apnea and lessen the occurrence of associated health conditions is important. The investigators will address this mandate by determining if repeated exposure to mild intermittent hypoxia (MIH) reduces heart and blood vessel dysfunction and tiredness/ fatigue experienced while exercise performance. The investigators propose that exposure to MIH has a multipart effect. MIH directly targets heart and blood vessel associated conditions, while simultaneously increasing upper airway stability and improving sleep quality. These modifications may serve to directly decrease breathing episodes and may also serve to improve usage of CPAP. Independent of its effect, MIH may serve as an adjunctive therapy which provides another path to reducing heart and blood vessel abnormalities that might ultimately result in improvements in exercise capacity and reverse performance fatigue in individuals with OSA.

OurSleepKit for Sleep Apnea
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a couple-focused mobile health intervention will improve the use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), the primary treatment option for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Participants include newly diagnosed patients with OSA who are candidates for CPAP treatment and their partners. The couples will received supportive information and resources on their mobile devices before CPAP begins and continuing for 6 months into CPAP treatment. Their interaction with the resources is self-paced and the time sent engaging with the information is up to them. Participants will be asked to answer questions independently at five points: before CPAP, and after using CPAP for 1-week, 1-month, 3-months and 6-months. Those questions are about their experience of using CPAP, how the partner is involved in CPAP treatment, and symptoms and quality of life. At the end of the study, some couples may be contacted for a virtual discussion about your experience regarding study participation which lasts approximately 1 hour.

Personalized Surgery for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Ann Arbor, Michigan
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a novel personalized surgical approach to the standard AT in children with small tonsils (ST). This will be accomplished by randomizing children with ST and OSA to one of these two treatments and comparing outcomes after 6 months. It is the investigators' central hypothesis that a personalized drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE)-directed surgical approach that uses existing procedures to address the specific fixed and dynamic anatomic features causing obstruction (ie, anatomic endotypes) in each child with ST will perform better than the currently recommended standard first line approach of AT. This novel approach may improve OSA outcomes and reduce the burden of unnecessary AT or secondary surgery for persistent OSA after an ineffective AT. To test this hypothesis, the investigators propose to study children aged 2-17 years with small tonsils and OSA.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Obstructive Sleep Apnea clinical trials pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.
How do Obstructive Sleep Apnea clinical trials work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Obstructive Sleep Apnea trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Obstructive Sleep Apnea is 12 months.
How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.
What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.
Do I need to be insured to participate in a Obstructive Sleep Apnea medical study?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.
What are the newest Obstructive Sleep Apnea clinical trials?
Most recently, we added Nerve Stimulation for Obstructive Sleep Apnea, Mouth Tape for Snoring and Sleep Apnea and Ketone-IQ for Sleep Apnea to the Power online platform.
