Summary

This phase 2 trial tested a drug called lorundrostat in 48 adults with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea and high blood pressure. Participants took either the drug or a placebo for four weeks to see if it improved breathing during sleep and lowered blood pressure. The study is complete, and results will show whether this approach is worth testing further.
