Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subject is between the ages of 18 and 80.
  • Diagnosis of OSA, based on ODI 10-60 (as assessed per home screening night).

  • Subject has proper mouthpiece fit, as assessed by home screening night (See section 8.3).

Who cannot join

  • OSA treatment within two weeks prior to Medical/Dental screening visit.
  • Poor nasal patency as evidenced by Peak Nasal Inspiratory Flow (PNIF) less than 75 l/min (assessed at baseline medical visit). In addition, any ongoing process or condition that limits nasal breathing or indications thereof, including: obligate mouth-breathing, persistent blockage of one or both nostrils resulting in the inability to sleep with the mouth closed, chronic nasal congestion, chronic allergic rhinitis, and intermittent allergic rhinitis that does not respond to non-sedating/non-stimulating medical therapy.
  • Oral cavity infection or any other oral or dental condition or problem that would limit subject use of the Attune Sleep Apnea System (e.g. dentures, loose tooth/teeth, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) conditions, or any oral or dental condition that the Investigator believes could be exacerbated by the Attune Sleep Apnea System.
  • Prior use of the Attune Sleep Apnea System.
  • History of any OSA surgical treatment including uvulopalatopharyngoplasty surgery (UPPP), maxillomandibular advancement surgery (MMA), radio frequency (RF) ablation treatment, palatal stent devices, etc.
  • Current use or use within the previous 2 weeks of medications or other agents that may affect sleep or PSG, including:
Show all 14Show fewer
  • Hypnotics, anxiolytics, anticonvulsants, sedating antihistamines, stimulants, sedating antidepressants or other medications likely to affect neurocognitive function and/or alertness. Patients on stable selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) therapy for > 3 months and who are expected to remain on therapy for the Study duration, may continue SSRI treatment.
  • Consumption of > 500mg caffeine per day (e.g. > 8 cola-type beverages, > 5 cups of coffee).
  • Any known illicit drug use or abuse within the past year, or failure to pass drug urine screen test, or alcohol breathalyzer test with result over 0.05% BAL.
  • Smokers who smoke during the night (interference with PSG).
  • Any concomitant diagnosed or suspected sleep or chronic neurological disorders, other than OSA, including insomnia, and central sleep apnea.
  • Currently working nights, rotating night shifts, planned travel across four or more time zones required during Study period, or within two weeks prior to Study enrollment, or sleep schedule not compatible with sleep lab practices.
  • Potential sleep apnea complications that, in the opinion of the investigator, may affect the health or safety of the participant, including: low blood oxygen, recent near-miss or prior automobile accident due to sleepiness, reported history of severe cardiovascular disease (including NYHA class III or IV heart failure, CAD with angina or MI/stroke in past 6 months, uncontrolled hypertension or hypotension, cardiac arrhythmias), reported respiratory disorders, or use of medication or other treatment which may pose additional risk to the subject or confound the results of the Study.
  • Female subjects who are pregnant or intend to become pregnant during the study period.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical Success Defined as Apnea-hypopnea Index (AHI) Reduction of >50% and Treated AHI<20

    Comparing first treatment night AHI to control/baseline night. AHI is calculated by dividing the number of apnea/hypopnea events by the number of hours of sleep. AHI values are typically characterized as 5-15/hr = mild OSA, 15-30/hr = moderate OSA, and >30/hr = severe OSA. For each subject, Clinical success was defined as apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) reduction of >50% and treated AHI<20. The number of subjects with clinical success was determined to calculate the primary endpoint as the ratio of the number of subjects with clinical success to the number of subjects.

    Measured: first treatment night

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Adverse Event Rate

    Further categorized as serious and non-serious, device-related and non-device-related, unanticipated and anticipated, and based on level of severity. Adverse events will be evaluated during the trial at the following visits during 28-day take-home period: 7-day, 14-day, 21-day, 28-day follow-up, and any unscheduled visits.

    Measured: 4 weeks

  2. Last Treatment Night Response (AHI Reduction)

    Comparing AHI at the last treatment night to the control/baseline night is reported as the percent change in AHI. AHI is calculated by dividing the number of apnea/hypopnea events by the number of hours of sleep. AHI values are typically characterized as 5-15/hr = mild OSA, 15-30/hr = moderate OSA, and >30/hr = severe OSA. Negative numbers represent a decrease/improvement in AHI, whereas positive numbers represent an increase/no improvement in AHI.

    Measured: At completion of 28 day home use.

  3. Percent Reduction in Oxygen Desaturation Index (ODI)

    Comparing first treatment night to control/baseline night reported as percent change. Negative numbers represent a reduction/improvement in ODI, whereas positive numbers represent increases/no improvement in ODI.

    Measured: First treatment night

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Attune Sleep Apnea System in people with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by ApniCure, Inc. at 6 sites in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 14 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Jun 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical Success Defined as Apnea-hypopnea Index (AHI) Reduction of >50% and Treated AHI<20 (time frame: first treatment night). 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 30 Jun 2014.
