Summary

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effect of multiple doses of suvorexant (MK-4305) on respiratory function in participants with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) compared to administration of placebo. The primary hypothesis of this study is that multiple doses of MK-4305 do not produce a clinically significant increase in Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) in participants with mild to moderate OSA, as compared to placebo.
