Secondary study design	Randomised controlled trial
Study setting(s)	Not specified

Scientific title
Study objectives	In patients with mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and endoscopic evidence of laryngeal inflammation, proton pump inhibitor treatment will lead to an improvement in apnea severity and apnea-related symptoms.
Ethics approval(s)	McGill University Health Centre Research Ethics Board (Study No. BMA 05-018), approved January 24, 2006.
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied	Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Intervention	Six month treatment with Lansoprazole 30 mg orally twice a day (BID) or no drug.
Intervention type	Drug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
Phase	Not Specified
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)	Lansoprazole
Primary outcome measure	Change in apnea-hypopnea index from baseline to six months.
Secondary outcome measures	1. Laryngoscopic Reflux Finding Score 2. Laryngeal air pressure pulse sensory threshold 3. Reflux Symptom Index 4. Epworth Sleepiness Score 5. Quebec Sleep Apnea Quality of Life Index 6. Functional Outcomes of Sleep instrument All at baseline, four and six months; also Polysomnographic variables other than apnea-hypopnea Index at baseline and six months.
Overall study start date	01/11/2006
Completion date	31/10/2007

Participant type(s)	Patient
Age group	Adult
Sex	Not Specified
