Recruiting studies
- NCT07287293Recruiting
Suctioning vs no suctioning when waking from anesthesia
This trial compares two ways of managing your breathing tube when you wake up from general anesthesia: suctioning the tube or not. It aims to see which method is more comfortable and safer for you after surgery.
Samut SakhonAges 18 years+ - NCT06189755Recruiting
MicroRNA markers for sleep apnea
This trial is studying tiny molecules in the blood (called microRNAs) to see if they can help diagnose or monitor obstructive sleep apnea. It compares people with moderate to severe sleep apnea who are starting PAP therapy with people who do not have sleep apnea.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–75 - NCT07071935RecruitingPhase 2
Early ventilation study for newly diagnosed ALS
This trial tests whether starting non-invasive ventilation (breathing support) early in ALS helps people breathe easier and live better. If you've been diagnosed with ALS in the last 6 months and haven't used a breathing machine before, you may qualify.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06089603RecruitingPhase 4
CPAP for Sleep Apnea with High Red Blood Cells
This study tests whether CPAP therapy (a machine that helps keep your airway open while you sleep) can lower high red blood cell counts in people who have both sleep apnea and polycythemia. It may help reduce the need for other treatments.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–80 - NCT07396649Recruiting
Upper airway stimulation for sleep apnea
This trial tests a device that stimulates the upper airway during sleep to treat obstructive sleep apnea. It may help people with moderate to severe sleep apnea who have trouble using a CPAP machine.
EdegemAges 19 years+ - NCT05735444Recruiting
CPAP registry for sleep apnea in people with high blood pressure
This study keeps a record of people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who also have high blood pressure, to better understand how CPAP is used and what outcomes happen. It may help your care team by contributing your information to a large multi-center study in China.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07012772RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new airway device for sedated ERCP
This trial tests a new breathing device (called a combo endoscopy oropharyngeal airway) to help keep your airway open during a sedated ERCP procedure. It may improve safety and comfort for people having this exam.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07530302Recruiting
Better ways to adjust CPAP therapy when it isn't working well
This trial tests whether a wearable device called Sunrise can help doctors adjust your CPAP machine better than standard sleep tests. If your current CPAP isn't stopping all your breathing pauses, this study may help find the right adjustments for you.
GrenobleAges 18–85 - NCT05988385Recruiting
Treating sleep apnea to protect memory in older adults
This study tests whether treating sleep apnea can help protect memory and brain health in older adults. It involves using a CPAP machine or other treatments for sleep apnea and may include memory tests and brain scans over 2 years.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 55–85 - NCT07723144Recruiting
Identifying sleep apnea biomarkers
This study compares blood samples from people with moderate-to-severe sleep apnea and those without sleep apnea to find markers that could help diagnose or treat the condition. Half of those with sleep apnea will start CPAP therapy right away, while others wait before starting.
Bialystok, Podlaskie VoivodeshipAges 18–65 - NCT06915831Recruiting
Type 1 diabetes and sleep apnea study
This study looks at how sleep apnea affects blood sugar control in adults with type 1 diabetes. It may help researchers understand if treating sleep apnea improves diabetes management.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–50 - NCT06047353Recruiting
Helping people with sleep apnea try PAP therapy for the first time
This study tests whether health advocates can help people with moderate-to-severe sleep apnea start using a PAP machine. If you've never used a PAP or other sleep apnea treatment before, this trial may help you get support and guidance.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–100 - NCT06600646Recruiting
Study of energy production in airway cells for chronic cough
This study looks at how the cells lining your airways make energy and whether this is different in people with chronic cough that doesn't get better with treatment or has no clear cause. It may help doctors understand why some people cough and find new ways to treat it.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18–80 - NCT07332442RecruitingPhase 3
CPAP and arousal in new sleep apnea patients
This study tests whether a common sleep apnea treatment (CPAP) affects how easily you wake up and the reasons behind it. It is for people who have just been diagnosed with sleep apnea and are not taking certain sleep medications or alcohol.
North Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06711159Recruiting
Searching for a biomarker of sleepiness in severe sleep apnea
This study looks for a biological marker of severe daytime sleepiness in people with severe obstructive sleep apnea who haven't started breathing machine treatment yet. It may help doctors better understand and treat sleepiness in the future.
Koege, Regional ZealandAges 18 years+ - NCT06776042Recruiting
Nasal polyps and smell loss study
This study looks at why people with nasal polyps lose their sense of smell and how it might come back. You may be able to join if you have had nasal blockage, runny nose, smell loss, or facial pain for at least 12 weeks, have polyps seen inside your nose, and are using a steroid spray regularly.
BrusselsAges 18–70 - NCT05289063RecruitingPhase 1
Study new sleep apnea and blood vessel function
This Phase 1 study looks at how blood vessel function is affected by obstructive sleep apnea in adults who are newly diagnosed and have not used CPAP. It may help researchers understand the early effects of sleep apnea and guide future treatments.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06994650RecruitingPhase 3
Study of HRS9531 for sleep apnea and obesity
This trial tests an injection called HRS9531 to see if it helps people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity who already use a CPAP or similar breathing device. It may help by reducing weight and improving breathing during sleep.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07444372Recruiting
CPAP for Sleep Apnea After Atrial Fibrillation Ablation
This trial tests whether starting CPAP therapy (a breathing mask used during sleep) after a heart procedure called atrial fibrillation ablation can help people with both sleep apnea and atrial fibrillation. It might lower the chance of the heart rhythm problem coming back.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06571942RecruitingPhase 4
Triple therapy for lung disease from biomass smoke
This trial is testing a combination of three inhaled medicines (triple therapy) to see how well they help the small airways in people whose lung disease is caused by breathing in smoke from cooking or heating with wood or other biomass fuels. It may be a good fit if you have COPD or chronic bronchitis from this type of exposure.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic obstructive airway disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 68 recruiting chronic obstructive airway disease 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 chronic obstructive airway disease 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 chronic obstructive airway disease 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.
