The selective dopamine norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor JZP-110 was effective at treating excessive sleepiness in obstructive sleep apnea patients, according to an abstract on a study to be presented at the CHEST annual meeting.
In a 12-week, phase 3 trial, adult patients with obstructive sleep apnea were randomized to receive placebo or once-daily JZP-110 at dosages of 37.5 mg, 75 mg, 150 mg, or 300 mg. A total of 459 patients were included in the final analysis.
At the end of the trial, the mean reduction from baseline on a maintenance of wakefulness test was 0.2 minutes for patients in the placebo group, 4.7 minutes in the 37.5-mg group, 9.1 minutes in the 75-mg group, 11 minutes in the 150-mg group, and 13 minutes in the 300-mg group. Mean changes in Epworth Sleepiness Scale scores were –3.3 for patients in the placebo group, –5.1 in the 37.5-mg group, –5 in the 75-mg group, –7.7 in the 150-mg group, and –7.9 in the 300-mg group.
A significantly higher rate of patients in the 75-mg (72.4%), 150-mg (89.7%), and 300-mg (88.7%) groups improved on the Patient Global Impression of Change scale, compared with patients in the placebo (49.1%) and 37.5-mg (55.4%) groups.
Just under 68% of patients who received JZP-110 experienced at least one adverse event, compared with 47.9% of patients who received placebo. The most common adverse events were headache, nausea, decreased appetite, and anxiety. Six serious adverse events were reported over the study period, but none was related to JZP-110.
The study is scheduled to be presented on Sunday, Oct. 29, from 1:30 p.m. to 1:45 p.m. in Room 601A of the Toronto Convention Centre South Building as part of the “Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Insights & Management” session, which will run from 1:30 p.m. to 3 p.m.
