To enroll, subjects need to have a previous diagnosis of at least one or more of the following comorbidities:
Stable heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (NYHA class 1-3 inclusive) with or without atrial fibrillation
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (NYHA class 1-3 inclusive) and hypertension (BP\>120/80 mmHg at screening visit despite the treatment with ≥2 antihypertensives) with or without atrial fibrillation
Persistent atrial fibrillation (continuous and sustained for more than 7 days, rate controlled with resting HR\<100bpm)1 without heart failure
History of primary (essential) hypertension with BP at screening visit \>130/80 mmHg despite the treatment with \>2 antihypertensives
Evidence of complex sleep apnea (CPAP-emergent central sleep apnea with documented CAI\>5 events/h on CPAP within 1 year from screening)
Standard care for heart failure and atrial fibrillation for at least 3 weeks before the screening visit
OSA measures Average ODI4 between 7 and 55 events/h, inclusive, and average SpO2 ≥88% from continuous home pulse oximetry recordings at screening.
AHI4 (Hypopneas defined by 4% oxygen desaturation) of \>10 to ≤60 events/h
1. At minimum of 25% central or mixed apneas (as proportion of total apneas) with a minimum of 2.5 central or mixed apneas/hour of sleep
2. OR evidence of clear Cheyne-Stokes breathing pattern during the baseline PSG (regardless of central apnea component).
3. OR evidence of OSA with LGn \>0.5 at the baseline PSG (regardless of central apnea component) Average SpO2 during sleep ≥88%
Weight BMI between 18.5 and 40 kg/m2 for men, or 42 kg/m2 for women, inclusive
Male participants If male and sexually active with female partner(s) of childbearing potential, participant must agree, from Study Day 1 through 1 week after the last dose of study drug, to practice the protocol specified contraception. Male participants must refrain from donating sperm for the duration of the study and for 3 months after the last dose of study treatment.
Female participants If a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP), the participant must agree, from Study Day 1 through 1 week after the last dose of study drug, to practice the protocol specified contraception. All WOCBP must have negative result of a serum pregnancy test performed at screening.
If female and of non-childbearing potential, the participant must be either postmenopausal or permanently sterile (e.g. bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy or hysterectomy).
Informed Consent Participant voluntarily agrees to participate in this study and signs an Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved informed consent prior to performing any of the Screening Visit procedures.
Participant must be able to understand the nature of the study and must have the opportunity to have any questions answered.
Patients currently using PAP will be eligible for inclusion in the study if they express willingness to discontinue treatment for a minimum of 7 days before baseline SpO2 assessments, until the study completion.
You may not be if
Sustained SpO2\<93% during wakefulness or mean SpO2\<88% during sleep, calculated from PSG at screening
Dyspnea at rest or patients with heart failure class IV NYHA
Blood pressure \<90/50 mmHg or \>160/100 mmHg at V1.
Medical Conditions Recent (\<3 months) episode of acute myocardial infarction or acute decompensated heart failure.
History of stroke.
History of sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmias or other severe arrhythmias without defibrillator implanted.
Heart failure primarily caused by valvular, post-partum cardiomyopathy or active myocarditis
History of obesity-hypoventilation syndrome or respiratory disturbance due to opioids.
History of bronchiectasis and uncontrolled asthma.
History of severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with a forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) \<50% of predicted (European Respiratory Society criteria)
Started treatment with β-blockers \<3 months before screening. Patients not taking β-blockers or taking β-blockers for \>3 months can be enrolled.
Narcolepsy, restless leg syndrome requiring medication, REM sleep behavior disorder.
Pronounced anatomical abnormalities of upper airway (adenoid vegetations, grade ≥3 tonsillar hypertrophy, etc.), pronounced micrognathia, or pronounced incomplete development of the lower jaw.
History of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder or bipolar disorder according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-5 (DSM-5) or International Classification of Disease tenth edition criteria.
Medically unexplained positive screen for drugs of abuse (excluding THC/marijuana) or history of substance use disorder as defined in DSM-V within 24 months prior to Screening Visit.
A significant illness or infection requiring medical treatment in the past 30 days as determined by investigator.
Clinically significant cognitive dysfunction as determined by investigator.
Women who are pregnant or nursing.
History of kidney stones
Prior/Concomitant Therapy Participants with a history of using devices for OSA treatment, including CPAP, oral or nasal devices, or positional devices, may enroll as long as the devices have not been used for at least 1 week before the baseline SpO2 assessments and are not used during participation in the study (through V7). Patients that are non-compliant to CPAP (less than 4hr/night for 5 days/week) can be enrolled, as well as patients who are naïve to PAP and patients who discontinued PAP previously. PAP compliant patients cannot be enrolled.
History of chronic oxygen therapy.
Concomitant use of medications from the list of disallowed medications.
Prior/Concurrent Clinical Study Experience Use of another investigational agent within 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to dosing.
Diagnostic Assessments Hepatic cirrhosis, hepatictransaminases \> 2X the upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin \>1.5X ULN (unless confirmed Gilbert syndrome), estimated glomerular filtration rate \< 40 ml/min.
Participants with reduced sodium and/or potassium blood serum levels.
Participants with suprarenal gland failure.
Participants with hyperchloremic acidosis.
Other Exclusions:
Night- or shift-work sleep schedule which causes the major sleep period to be during the day.
Employment as a commercial driver or operator of heavy or hazardous equipment.
Typically smoking more than 10 cigarettes or 2 cigars per day, or inability to abstain from smoking during overnight PSG visits.
Unwilling to use specified contraception.
History of regular alcohol consumption of more than 14 standard units per week (males) or more than 7 standard units per week (females), or unwillingness to limit alcohol consumption to no greater than 2 units/day (males), 1 unit per day (females). Alcohol is not to be consumed within 3 hours of bedtime or on PSG nights.
Unwilling to agree to limit during the study period caffeinated beverage intake (e.g., coffee, cola, tea) to 400 mg/day or less of caffeine, not to be used within 3 hours of bedtime.
