Trial Outcomes & Findings for Pharmacological Activation of HMN for OSA (NCT NCT03640052)

NCT ID: NCT03640052

Last Updated: 2020-02-24

Results Overview

Based on previous studies the investigators anticipate that active comparators will reduce AHI more effectively in subjects with moderate sleep apnea and low-to-moderate collapsibility (Vpassive \>50% of eupneic values). Higher AHI indicates more severe OSA, usually ranging between 10 to 110 events/hour.
