About the MARITIME-OSA studies

MARITIME-OSA involves two Phase 3 studies for people who are living with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and overweight or obesity, with or without positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy. In these studies, we are exploring if an investigational medicine (a monthly injection) can help reduce the severity of sleep apnea events.

MARITIME-OSA-1 is for participants who are using PAP therapy.

MARITIME-OSA-2 is for participants who are not using PAP therapy.

Who can take part?

Amgen is currently recruiting for MARITIME-OSA-1 and MARITIME-OSA-2.

You, or someone you care for, may be able to take part if you/they:

  • are 18 years of age or older,
  • have moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (with or without positive airway pressure (PAP) use)
  • are living with obesity, which means having a body mass index (BMI) of 27kg/m2 or more.

What will this study involve?

Participants will receive either the investigational medicine or a placebo, which contains no actual medicine. A placebo looks the same as the investigational medicine.


The studies are made up of 3 parts.
