Current Research Trials

NARCOLEPSY

Brilliance 302 (Narcolepsy Type 1) and Brilliance 303 (Narcolepsy Type 2)

Struggling with excessive daytime sleepiness or sudden sleep attacks?

The Brilliance study is evaluating an investigational medication for adults living with narcolepsy, a neurological sleep disorder that can cause:

  • Overwhelming daytime sleepiness

  • Sudden sleep episodes

  • Difficulty staying alert during daily activities

Researchers are studying whether this treatment may help:

  • Improve wakefulness during the day

  • Reduce unplanned sleep episodes

  • Support better daily functioning and quality of life

You may qualify if you:

  • Have been diagnosed with narcolepsy type 1 or type 2

  • Experience excessive daytime sleepiness

  • Are looking for additional treatment options

What participation involves:

  • Study medication (oral or other form depending on protocol)

  • Sleep assessments and symptom tracking

  • Regular visits with a clinical research team

Participants receive:

  • Study-related care at no cost

  • Close monitoring by sleep specialists

  • Compensation for your time

OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA

AMAZE 3 and 4 Studies (Obstructive Sleep Apnea + Obesity)

Tired of your obstructive sleep apnea symptoms  - with or without CPAP?

The AMAZE studies are researching an investigational medication for adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who are also living with overweight or obesity.

OSA occurs when the airway becomes blocked during sleep, leading to:

  • Loud snoring

  • Interrupted breathing

  • Daytime fatigue and low energy

This study is evaluating whether a medication that targets weight and metabolic pathways may help:

  • Reduce the severity of sleep apnea

  • Improve breathing during sleep

  • Support meaningful weight loss

You may qualify if you:

  • Have been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea

  • Have a BMI ≥27

  • Participants can either have no treatment or currently use PAP therapy; either option is eligible for the study!

What makes this study different:

  • Investigational medication aimed at the root cause of OSA (weight-related airway obstruction)

  • Potential alternative or complement to CPAP

Participants receive:

  • Study-related care at no cost

  • Counsel by a dietician 

  • Sleep evaluations and health monitoring

  • Compensation for your time and travel

SHIFT WORK DISORDER

SUNOSI® (Solriamfetol) Study for Shift Work Sleep Disorder

Working nights or rotating shifts and struggling to stay awake?

You may qualify for a clinical research study evaluating SUNOSI® (solriamfetol), an FDA-approved medication being studied to help people with Shift Work Sleep Disorder (SWSD) improve wakefulness during their work hours.

Shift Work Sleep Disorder can affect people who work non-traditional hours, leading to:

  • Excessive sleepiness during night shifts

  • Difficulty staying alert on the job

  • Fatigue that impacts performance and safety

This study is evaluating whether SUNOSI® may help:

  • Improve wakefulness during scheduled work hours

  • Reduce excessive daytime or nighttime sleepiness

  • Support better functioning during shift-based schedules

You may qualify if you:

  • Work overnight, early morning, or rotating shifts

  • Regularly experience trouble staying awake during work hours

  • Are otherwise generally healthy or meet study-specific criteria

What to expect:

  • Study medication (SUNOSI® or placebo)

  • Wakefulness and sleep assessments

  • Regular visits with a clinical research team

Participants receive:

  • Study-related care at no cost

  • Close monitoring by medical professionals

  • Compensation for time and travel

Why participate?

  • Access to a medication already approved for other sleep disorders, now being studied for SWSD

  • Opportunity to improve alertness during work hours

  • Help advance research for people working non-traditional schedules
