Nyxoah Reports Positive Outcomes in DREAM U.S. Pivotal Study for Sleep Apnea Treatment

Published March 20, 2024

Nyxoah SA NYXH, a health-technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative solutions and services for sleep-disordered breathing conditions, recently announced the successful results of its DREAM U.S. pivotal study. The study evaluated the efficacy of Nyxoah's pioneering therapy in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), a condition characterized by repetitive episodes of complete or partial obstruction of the upper airway during sleep.

Study Achievements and Clinical Significance

The DREAM U.S. pivotal study met its primary endpoints, demonstrating a significant Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) responder rate of 63.5% on an intent to treat (ITT) basis with a p-value of 0.002. Moreover, the study showed an Oxygen Desaturation Index (ODI) responder rate of 71.3% on an ITT basis, considerably surpassing the threshold for statistical significance with a p-value of less than 0.001. These results suggest that Nyxoah's therapy is effective in reducing the number of apnea and hypopnea events per hour, as well as the incidents of oxygen desaturation in OSA patients.

Investor Implications and Future Prospects

Nyxoah's announcement is a welcome development for stakeholders and investors in the company, evidenced by the stock's performance under the ticker NYXH. As the company moves towards potential FDA approval and commercialization of its OSA therapy, these pivotal study outcomes may positively influence the company's market position and future financial performance. Nyxoah's approach could revolutionize the treatment for millions of patients suffering from sleep apnea, setting the stage for further research and expansion in the domain of sleep disorder therapies.
