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 - NCT07136909Recruiting
Testing a sleep apnea questionnaire for French children
This study is testing a French questionnaire (OSA-18) to see if it helps screen for sleep apnea in kids. It may lead to easier detection of breathing problems during sleep.
Bron, RhôneAges 4–17 - 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 - 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 - NCT07396103Recruiting
New approach to reduce breathing pauses in preemies
This study tests a new way to reduce the number of times a preemie baby stops breathing (apnea). It's for babies born early who have apnea but are not on a breathing machine.
Santiago, Santiago MetropolitanAges Up to 4 weeks - NCT02762175Recruiting
Track breathing airway changes after jaw surgery for sleep apnea
This study records how your upper airway changes on scans after a jaw surgery called MMA for obstructive sleep apnea (OSAS). It also looks at how those changes relate to quality of life, which may help doctors better predict who benefits from surgery.
BrugesAges Any age - NCT02919930Recruiting
Testing a new breathing support choice for central sleep apnea
This study looks at which settings to use for adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV), a machine that helps breathing during sleep. It is meant for people with central sleep apnea who are not getting enough benefit from CPAP, so ASV may be a better match.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT03083405Enrolling by invitation
Study of tooth grinding during sleep
This study is for adults who have been diagnosed with sleep bruxism (tooth grinding during sleep). Researchers want to understand it better using sleep testing, and it may help refine how this condition is evaluated.
WroclawAges 18–70 - NCT07446634Recruiting
Jaw advancement surgery for sleep apnea
This study tests jaw advancement surgery for people with obstructive sleep apnea who haven't been helped by CPAP or mouthpieces. It looks at whether moving the jaw forward can improve breathing during sleep.
Falun, Dalarna CountyAges 18–70 - 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+ - NCT05501236Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for sleep apnea using neck nerve signals
This study tests a device that stimulates nerves in the neck to help keep your airway open during sleep for obstructive sleep apnea. If you fit the safety and sleep-study requirements, it may offer an alternative approach to improving breathing at night.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07493629Recruiting
Study on immune status and disease control in inflammatory airway diseases
This study looks at how the immune system works and how well diseases like asthma, COPD, and others are controlled. You may join if you have one of these conditions or if you are a healthy volunteer or smoker without lung disease.
Ningbo, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07570121RecruitingPhase 1
How Caffeine Moves Through Pregnancy and to the Baby
This study looks at how caffeine is absorbed and transferred to a baby during pregnancy in women at risk of early delivery. Researchers hope to understand safe caffeine use in this situation and potentially help prevent complications.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07579871Recruiting
Sleep patterns and recovery after first stroke
This study looks at how sleep affects recovery in people who have had their first ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by a blood clot). Researchers want to understand whether sleep quality influences how well patients regain function after stroke.
Lund, Skåne CountyAges 18 years+ - 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 - 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 - NCT07312136Enrolling by invitation
Liver health follow-up in type 2 diabetes
This study follows up on people who already joined the EPSONIP trial to check how their liver health (MASLD) has changed over time. It uses MRI to look at the liver and does not test any new medicine.
Linköping, Östergötland CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07009535Enrolling by invitation
Sleep apnea risk and orthodontic issues in children
This study looks at how narrow upper jaws (maxillary constriction) relate to sleep apnea in children with mixed teeth. It aims to understand if dental problems affect breathing during sleep and guide future treatments.
Pavia, LombardyAges 6–12 - NCT06970171Enrolling by invitation
Willingness to use a sleep apnea mouthpiece
This trial tests how well people accept a mouthpiece (mandibular advancement device) to treat obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where your breathing stops and starts during sleep). If you have sleep apnea and can wear a device that moves your lower jaw forward while you sleep, you may be able to join.
Greifswald, Mecklenburg-VorpommernAges 18–75 - NCT06786117Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for apnea?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 367 recruiting apnea studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a apnea trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a apnea trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
