ProSomnus, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSA), a leading CPAP alternative for the
treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (“OSA”), announced updated
clinical trial data, presented at the ProSleep 2023 Users
Conference earlier this month. The updated data indicate that the
First Line Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatment study (FLOSAT) is on
track to achieve all endpoints.
FLOSAT is an ongoing, prospective, independent,
head-to-head study comparing the effectiveness of precision OAT as
first-line treatment versus CPAP therapy. ProSomnus EVO® devices
are being used exclusively for the precision OAT arm of the study.
A total of 136 patients with moderate and severe OSA were included
in the study.
Key findings to date include:
- Precision oral appliance therapy is
effective, and non-inferior to CPAP, as a first-line treatment for
moderate to severe OSA
- Precision OAT was effective among
90% of moderate and 85% of severe OSA patients
- Precision oral appliance therapy
was preferred by patients, with 98% continuing therapy at three
months versus 22% discontinuing CPAP therapy over the same period
of time
- In an intention to treat analysis
factoring efficacy and adherence, precision OAT (ProSomnus)
demonstrated twice the mean disease alleviation as CPAP
“The FLOSAT study was designed to evaluate
whether precision Oral Appliance Therapy could be utilized for the
very practical and emergent issue of patients with OSA who could
not access CPAP due to the recall,” commented Prof. Dr. Olivier
Vanderveken, Antwerp University Hospital. “The preliminary results
of this study indicate that precision oral appliances are an
effective and patient preferred treatment option, which is
particularly relevant for the growing number of sleep clinicians
practicing the P4 approach to making medicine more predictive,
preventive, personalized and participatory.”
An additional observation from FLOSAT is the
performance of precision OAT among severe OSA patients, in the
context of data reported for hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS).
Using the same criteria for efficacy – an AHI < 20 and a 50%
improvement – 85% of severe OSA patients were successfully treated
with non-invasive precision OAT. Clinical studies for the
surgically implanted HNS devices, such as the STAR trial, report
success in the range of 66% even with patient selection and the
exclusion of concentric collapse patients. In July, ProSomnus
announced plans to design a head-to-head clinical trial comparing
precision OAT and HNS in treating patients with severe OSA.
Patients are actively being enrolled in the
Severe OSA Study, a multi-center, prospective, clinical trial
designed to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of ProSomnus
devices for the treatment of severe OSA and apply for FDA label
expansion.
“The updated data and analysis from FLOSAT is
validation that precision oral appliance therapy with ProSomnus
devices is an effective front-line treatment for moderate to severe
OSA,” said Len Liptak, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of
ProSomnus. “This is an important finding. Each year millions of
people worldwide are diagnosed with moderate to severe OSA. An
estimated 40% of them refuse CPAP. Over two and a half million
people have been impacted by the recent CPAP recall and seek
alternatives. The results of this study indicate that precision OAT
with ProSomnus devices is an effective, and preferred, option for
these patients.”
Data from FLOSAT will also be presented at the
iBEDSSMA Symposium, taking place in Knokke-Heist, Belgium, from
September 22-23, and the World Sleep Congress, taking place in Rio
de Janeiro, Brazil, from October 20-25.
About FLOSATDesigned and
conducted by The Antwerp University Hospital (UZA), the primary
endpoints of FLOSAT are to evaluate the overall effectiveness of
OAT as a first-line treatment for OSA, compare the overall
effectiveness of OAT with that of CPAP and evaluate patients’
preference. ProSomnus devices are being used exclusively for the
precision OAT arm of the study. A total of 136 patients enrolled in
FLOSAT, all with moderate to severe OSA, body mass index less than
35 kg/m2, and central AHI less than 30% of total AHI, and all of
whom had not received any previous OSA therapy and were eligible
for OAT. After completing three months of first-line treatment with
OAT followed by three months of CPAP, participants are asked which
therapy they prefer. More information can be found at
www.ClinicalTrials.gov using the identifier NCT05393531.
