What Will Happen in This Study?
Prior to joining the study, you will review the Informed Consent document with the study doctor. This document will outline and explain everything that will occur during the study, as well as any potential side effects.
During this review, the study doctor will also answer any questions you may have. After your questions have been answered and you agree to participate in the study, you will have a physical exam and medical tests, including an overnight sleep evaluation.
The tests and sleep evaluation will help to determine whether you can continue to participate in this study.
If you are eligible to continue in the study, you will be assigned to one of two groups. One group will receive the investigational drug, and the other group will receive placebo. Placebo looks like the investigational drug but contains no active medication.
Neither you nor the study team will know which study drug you are taking. This allows study doctors to compare both groups and learn whether the investigational drug may be able to treat sleep apnea.
You will take your study drug every night within 30 minutes of bedtime.
You will work with the study team to schedule your appointments. Most of these appointments will be office visits. You will also have four overnight sleep studies, which the study doctor will discuss with you in more detail.
Please know that you will not be charged to participate in this study, and you do not need health insurance. You will also be compensated for your time and travel.
Even if you join this study, you can stop participating at any time and for any reason.
