Participant Flow

5 clinical sites screened 101 participants 62 were randomized. This was an unblinded three period placebo controlled study. Participants who withdrew were not replaced.

All participants were centrally randomized to one of 6 sequences (A - B - C, B - C - A, C - B - A, A - C - B, B - A - C, C - A - B). A 1-week minimum washout period occurred between each of the 3 arm assignments.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 day

Population: The efficacy was analyzed using the mITT Population comprised of all participants who took at least 1 dose of any of the study treatments and had at least 1 measurement on the primary endpoint. Sixty (96.8%) patients were included in the mITT Population. Patients were analyzed for efficacy according to the treatment sequence into which they were randomized. Due to insufficient data quality of the home sleep test, AHI could not be determined in some treatment conditions.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 day

Population: The efficacy was analyzed using the mITT Population comprised of all participants who took at least 1 dose of any of the study treatments and had at least 1 measurement on the primary endpoint. Sixty (96.8%) patients were included in the mITT Population. Patients were analyzed for efficacy according to the treatment sequence into which they were randomized. Due to insufficient data quality of the home sleep test, hypoxic burden could not be determined in some treatment conditions.

Hypoxic burden (a way to measure oxygen desaturation) determined by measuring the respiratory event-associated area under the desaturation curve from pre-event baseline, AD036 vs. placebo. Hypoxic Burden was measured during polysomnography (type of sleep study), while the patient was asleep

Sixty (96.8%) patients were included in the mITT Population. Patients were analyzed for efficacy according to the treatment sequence into which they were randomized. Mean (SD) of ODI (4%). Due to insufficient data quality of the home sleep test, ODI could not be determined in some treatment conditions.
