This study investigates if a new oral medication can help alleviate the severity of upper airway obstruction and reduce nighttime high blood pressure (nocturnal hypertension) in individuals with Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
Qualification Requirements
Men and Women
Ages 18 to 75 years old
Previously diagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
Body Mass Index (BMI) of 27 or higher
COMPENSATION UP TO: TBD
Study Details
This clinical trial explores a potential new approach to managing Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). The research focuses on an investigational oral medication designed to address two key aspects of the condition simultaneously: reducing the physical blockage in the upper airway during sleep and lowering the high blood pressure that can often occur at night (nocturnal hypertension) as a consequence of OSA. The key objective is to validate if this single medication can provide these dual benefits.
We are currently enrolling men and women aged 18 to 75 who have an existing diagnosis of Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Eligible participants must also have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 27 or greater, as higher BMI is a common factor associated with OSA. These criteria help focus the research on individuals likely experiencing the specific conditions the study medication aims to improve, allowing for a clear evaluation of its potential effectiveness.
