About IHL-42X
IHL-42X, an oral fixed-dose combination of acetazolamide and dronabinol, is currently in Phase 2/3 clinical studies for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Designed to act synergistically, IHL-42X targets two different physiological pathways associated with the intermittent hypoxia (IH) and hypercapnia that characterize OSA. In a prior Australian Phase 2 clinical trial, IHL-42X was shown to reduce the Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) in all dosage strengths, with the lowest dose reducing AHI by an average of 51 percent relative to baseline. RePOSA, a global Phase 2/3 clinical trial is underway, evaluating IHL-42X in individuals with OSA who are either non-compliant, intolerant, or naïve to positive airway pressure devices, including CPAP, with the Phase 2 portion conducted in the United States. The expanded Phase 3 portion will also include sites in the United Kingdom and European Union. A top-line readout from the U.S. Phase 2 portion is anticipated in the first half of 2025.
