About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Self-controlled, First-night Order Cross-over and Evaluator-blind Pivotal Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of the iNAP® Sleep Therapy System in Adults With Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)

A Prospective, Self-controlled, First-night Order Cross-over and Evaluator-blind Pivotal Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of iNAP® Sleep Therapy System in Adults with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)

Read the detailed description

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) impacts sleep quality of patients, which contributes significantly to hypertension, stroke, myocardial infarction and other health problems. Intraoral devices, such as tongue retaining devices, palatal lifting devices and mandibular repositioning devices designed to increase the patency of the airway and to decrease airway obstruction, are used to treat OSA. To this end, the investigators are conducting a prospective, self-controlled, first-night order cross-over and evaluator-blind pivotal study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of iNAP® Sleep Therapy System (iNAP®), a tongue and soft palate retaining intraoral device, in adults with OSA.

What participants receive

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

  • iNAP® Sleep Therapy SystemDevice

    The iNAP® provides a pressure gradient within the oral cavity, which pulls the tongue toward the upper palate and pulls the soft palate forward in a way that enhances the patency of the upper airway near the pharynx so that upper airway patency can be maintained to prevent sleep-disordered breathing.

What is being measured

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

  1. iNAP®-treated response rate over the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI)*

    *AHI is the number of apnea/hypopnea events divided by total sleep time (TST), i.e., the number of hours of sleep. The reduction rate of AHI is calculated by dividing the AHI reduction on the Tx PSG Study when compared to the Baseline PSG Study with individual baseline AHI. An AHI reduction rate of 50% is considered responsive, namely, responder. Therefore, an overall ratio of responder to the primary endpoint cohort is the response rate.

    Measured: first treatment night

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C)

    Global impression changes as rated by the physicians

    Measured: first treatment night

  2. Negative pressure maintenance time (hr)

    The time period of iNAP® in providing effective negative pressure within the oral cavity

    Measured: first treatment night

  3. Change of Oxygen Desaturation Index (ODI)** from the Baseline PSG Study compared to the Tx PSG Study

    **ODI is the event number of oxygen level drops by 3 percent or more from baseline divided by total sleep time (TST), i.e., the number of hours of sleep.

    Measured: first treatment night

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing iNAP® Sleep Therapy System in people with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by Somnics, Inc. at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 4 Apr 2019. 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 Taiwan. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

iNAP®-treated response rate over the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI)* (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 4 Apr 2019.
