Recruiting studies
- NCT06115018Recruiting

This study tests combining a CPAP machine with a sleep medication called daridorexant to treat people who have both sleep apnea and insomnia. It aims to see if this combination therapy is safe and effective for people who are just starting treatment.
GrenobleAges 18–75 - NCT07724938Recruiting
Combination tonsil removal and nerve implant for sleep apnea
This study tests if removing the tonsils together with implanting a nerve stimulator (Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation) can better treat sleep apnea in people whose throat sides collapse during sleep.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05986487Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment for better blood pressure control
This trial tests whether treating sleep-disordered breathing (like sleep apnea) can help lower blood pressure in people with high blood pressure. You may join if you have high blood pressure and haven't been diagnosed with a sleep disorder before.
LleidaAges 18 years+ - NCT03929549Recruiting
Testing a tool to predict jaw surgery failure for sleep apnea
This trial studies a way to predict which people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may not do well after maxillomandibular advancement surgery (jaw advancement). It could help doctors choose the right treatment and avoid ineffective surgery.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 30–65 - NCT07581938Recruiting
Early Dental Screening for Sleep Problems in Kids
This study uses a smartphone app and a wearable device to check for early signs of sleep-disordered breathing—a condition where breathing stops briefly during sleep—in children ages 8–13. The goal is to catch dental and jaw problems that might lead to sleep issues before they become serious.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 8–13 - NCT07466888Recruiting
Adjusting electrical stimulation frequency for tongue muscle activity
This trial tests how changing the frequency of gentle electrical pulses to a tongue muscle affects its activity. It may help people with sleep apnea by strengthening the muscle that keeps the airway open during sleep.
Gyeonggi-do, Seongnam-siAges 19 years+ - NCT06247631Recruiting
Sleep apnea risk before chest surgery
This study uses a simple questionnaire (STOP-Bang) to check if patients having chest surgery might have undiagnosed sleep apnea or face breathing challenges during surgery. It helps doctors plan safer care.
Ankara, KeçiörenAges 18–65 - NCT07447284Recruiting
Improving sleep for African American couples with OSA
This study tests whether a couple-based approach helps African American patients with moderate to severe sleep apnea stick with CPAP therapy better. It is designed for patients and their bed partners who want to improve sleep health together.
Cleveland, OhioAges 30 years+ - NCT06286189RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing trazodone for sleep apnea
This trial tests whether the medication trazodone can help people with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). If you have OSA and are not taking certain medications or have other sleep disorders, you may be able to join.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 21–70 - NCT05115968Recruiting
Study tonsil cell changes in children with sleep apnea
This study uses a lab method called single-cell sequencing to look at tiny cells from tonsil tissue in children. It compares children with obstructive sleep apnea to children without it, to better understand what’s happening in the throat and how it may relate to needing tonsil removal.
Hong KongAges 6–11 - NCT05267808Recruiting
Using sleep study patterns to guide future OSA treatment
This study looks at results from a sleep test to better understand the different types (“endotypes”) of obstructive sleep apnea. Your information may help doctors choose the next best step—often a procedure called drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE)—to guide treatment.
EdegemAges 18 years+ - NCT07380321Recruiting
Diaphragm ultrasound for children with sleep apnea
This study uses ultrasound to measure diaphragm movement in children with sleep apnea during routine surgery. It may help doctors better understand how sleep apnea affects breathing.
Istanbul, FatihAges 1–12 - NCT04457154Recruiting
Registry for teens and young adults with OSA who can’t use CPAP
This study collects information in a registry to help doctors understand outcomes for young people with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea who cannot use CPAP and may use an implantable breathing stimulation device. You might qualify if you’ve tried and couldn’t tolerate CPAP and you’re able/willing to get and use the device and return for follow-ups and sleep tests.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–21 - NCT07370350Recruiting
Ultrasound study of tongue in children with obesity
This study uses ultrasound (a safe, painless scan) to look at the tongue and how it moves in children and teenagers with obesity. Researchers want to learn more about tongue features that might affect breathing or weight, and the results could help improve care.
BrusselsAges 6–18 - NCT07362706Enrolling by invitation
Extended breathing tube use for stomach cancer with sleep apnea
This trial looks at keeping a breathing tube in longer after stomach cancer surgery for patients who also have severe sleep apnea. The goal is to see if this helps with recovery and safety.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–85 - NCT07367022Recruiting
Sleep monitors for children with autism
This study tests whether a portable sleep monitor works well for children with autism who are having their first sleep study. It aims to find easier ways to track sleep patterns at home.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 6–18 - NCT06851338Recruiting
Inspire therapy study for teens with Down syndrome and sleep apnea
This study tests a device called Inspire that stimulates the airway during sleep to treat obstructive sleep apnea in teenagers with Down syndrome who cannot use a CPAP machine or had a tonsillectomy that did not work well.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 13–18 - NCT07345312Recruiting
Testing BodySleep algorithm for child sleep apnea diagnosis
This study tests a new computer algorithm (called BodySleep) that analyzes sleep data to help diagnose obstructive sleep apnea in children. It aims to make diagnosis faster and easier for kids who are already scheduled for a sleep study.
Nancy, Grand EstAges 2–18 - NCT07334444Recruiting
Improving sleep apnea care for children with Down syndrome
This study looks at how sleep apnea is managed in children with Down syndrome. It aims to find better treatment approaches by reviewing data from kids who visited ear, nose, and throat (ENT) or sleep specialists in Strasbourg.
StrasbourgAges birth–17 years - NCT07331285Recruiting
