Oral Sleep Apnea Pill AD109 Nears FDA Sign-Off After Phase 3 Win

A phase 3 trial of the oral drug AD109 (a combo of aroxybutynin and atomoxetine) reduced the apnea-hypopnea index by about 44% versus 18% with placebo over 26 weeks in 646 patients with mild–severe obstructive sleep apnea, with roughly 42% moving to a lower severity category and about 18% no longer meeting OSA criteria. Side effects were mild (dry mouth, nausea, insomnia). The FDA has fast-tracked AD109, with a decision anticipated in 2027, potentially offering a convenient alternative to CPAP for patients unable or unwilling to use the machine.

Pfizer pushes ahead with Lyme vaccine despite late-stage trial miss

Pfizer intends to seek FDA approval for its Lyme disease vaccine candidate even after a late-stage trial failed to meet statistical goals due to too few Lyme cases; the company says efficacy exceeded 70% in vaccine recipients versus placebo, which they consider strong enough to move forward. Partner Valneva projects up to $1 billion in peak annual sales. The Phase 3 study started with about 18,000 participants but was reduced to roughly 9,400 due to site-quality issues, and Pfizer reports no safety concerns; the vaccine requires three initial doses followed by a booster and targets the outer surface protein A of the bacteria.
