Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Arm 1: AD098 - (single dose [one night], combination of drugs [60mg+5mg], oral capsule, administered prior to sleep)
Arm 2: AD153 - (single dose [one night], combination of drugs [50mg+5mg], oral capsule, administered prior to sleep)
Arm 3: AD639 - (single dose [one night], single drug [5mg], oral capsule, administered prior to sleep)
Approximately 1-week washout between each arm

To ensure adherence, all drugs are to be administered by research staff during the in-laboratory sleep studies (polysomnography) performed at the Monash University Sleep Research Facility.

Safety/efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
Outcomes will be assessed by linear mixed-effect modelling using treatment condition as a fixed effect. Based on a previous pilot study, a sample size of 10 will allow us to detect a difference of 18 (± 18) events/h with 80% power and a 5% level of significance

Summary
Brief summary
The primary aim of this study is to assess the effect that three combinations of drugs (known as AD098, AD153, AD639) have on sleep apnoea severity (i.e. apnoea/hypopnoea index) compared to placebo. Additional measures of sleep apnoea severity, cardiovascular and sleepiness outcomes will also be assessed as secondary outcomes.
