About this trial

Evaluation of the effectiveness of a new mandibular advancement device (BioMAD) in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adult (≥ 18 years) with diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (AHI ≥ 5/h).

Current use of a ResMed or SomnoMed MAD for at least 3 months with reported adherence ≥ 4 hours/night.

Ability and willingness to stop using the current MAD for a two-week wash-out period.

Agrees to be informed on incidental findings

Disqualifiers

Predominant central sleep apnea.

Known temporo-mandibular joint disorders or significant dental conditions that preclude MAD use.

Recent dental surgery (< 1 month) or planned during the investigation.

Known pregnancy, breastfeeding or planning pregnancy during the study;

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Apnea Hypopnea Index

Number of apneas and hypopneas per hour of sleep measured by home polysomnography under the 3 study conditions: no treatment, standard MAD, and BioMAD.

Time frame
Baseline, Day 15, Day 30

Secondary outcomes

1

The hypoxic burden

The sum of oxygen drops following apneas and hypopneas in %/min/h measured by home polysomnography under the 3 study conditions: no treatment, standard MAD, and BioMAD

Time frame
Baseline, Day 15, Day 30
2

Sleep efficiency and EEG-based sleep microstructure metrics

Assessment of sleep efficiency (TST/time in bed) and EEG based sleep microstructure analysed by FFT measured by home polysomnography under the 3 study conditions: no treatment, standard MAD, and BioMAD

Time frame
Baseline, Day 15, Day 30
3

Subjective daytime sleepiness

Measured using the Epworth sleepiness scale

Time frame
Baseline, Day 15, Day 30
4

Patients reported outcome measures (PROMS)

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System:PROMIS questionnaire (min 8 max 40 points, lower score is better)

Time frame
Baseline, Day 15, Day 30

Other outcomes

1

Patients comfort under treatment

Specific tolerance and comfort questionnaire Will be compared between the standard MAD treatment and the BioMAD treatment: qualitative assessment (no score)

Time frame
Baseline, day 30
2

Adverse effects related to BioMAD

Adverse effects evaluated by a specific ad hoc questionnaire

Time frame
At baseline (day 1) and at day 30
