Recruiting studies
- NCT06781593Recruiting
Light therapy and CPAP for depression with sleep apnea
This study tests if adding bright light therapy to standard CPAP treatment helps improve mood in people who have both depression and sleep apnea. You may benefit if your depression and sleep apnea are both being treated.
Bron, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06789770Recruiting
Nasal vs mouth breathing during drug-induced sleep
This study compares how breathing through the nose versus mouth affects sleep, using both natural and medication-induced sleep. It may help people with sleep apnea understand their breathing patterns better.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06861686Recruiting
New classification for obstructive sleep apnea
This study is improving how doctors classify obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where your breathing stops and starts during sleep). It focuses on sleepiness and heart-related risks to help guide treatment. If you are 40 or older and have untreated OSA, you may be able to join.
Antwerp, AntwerpAges 40 years+ - NCT06926036Recruiting
Sound therapy for sleep apnea
This study aims to test whether a special sound technique can help people with sleep apnea sleep better. It may offer a new way to manage the condition without needing a CPAP machine.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–60 - NCT06930404Recruiting
New ways to diagnose sleep apnea
This study tests new ways to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea. If you haven't been diagnosed with sleep apnea and are generally healthy, you may be able to join.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06994247Recruiting
Boosting CPAP use in severe sleep apnea
This study tests whether motivation and psychological support can help people with severe sleep apnea use their CPAP machine more consistently over three months.
Split, DalmatiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07103941Recruiting
Study of whether MAD therapy prevents bite changes
This study tests how well a dental device called a Mandibular Advancement Device (MAD) prevents changes in your bite and jaw alignment. It is for adults with sleep-disordered breathing who already have healthy, well-restored teeth.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT07120711Recruiting
Sleep apnea, thinking, and mood study for kids and adults
This study looks at how sleep apnea affects thinking and mood by checking certain proteins in the body. They want to see if these proteins can help predict or explain changes in memory, focus, or emotions.
ShanghaiAges 5 years+ - NCT07303452Recruiting
New device for sleep apnea in adults
This trial tests a new device called Restera™ Serene™ for people with obstructive sleep apnea who cannot use or do not want a CPAP mask. It may offer an alternative treatment option.
PerthAges 18 years+ - NCT00695214RecruitingPhase 2
Test with medicine-assisted sleep endoscopy for sleep apnea
This trial studies how well a procedure done while you sleep helps doctors understand the blockage causing obstructive sleep apnea and plan surgery. You may be helped if you’re an adult with sleep apnea who is considering surgical treatment.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02784977Recruiting
Sleep apnea study using a national sleep database
This study collects information from adults who are getting a sleep test because obstructive sleep apnea is suspected. It helps researchers better understand sleep apnea and who develops it, without giving a new treatment.
IstanbulAges 18–80 - NCT02703220RecruitingPhase 4
Finasteride test for mild to moderate sleep apnea in seniors
This study looks at whether finasteride (a prescription medicine) can help older adults with mild to moderate sleep apnea. You may be screened with a sleep test to confirm your breathing pattern during sleep.
Detroit, MichiganAges 60–89 - NCT03307330Recruiting
Study of body fat in people with obstructive sleep apnea
This study looks at how body fat (“adipose tissue”) may differ in people with obstructive sleep apnea. You may be asked for consent and could be asked to stop certain medicines short-term so researchers can take a safe fat sample.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–60 - NCT01902407Enrolling by invitation
Sleep scan study using computer models in people with Down syndrome
This study uses computer simulations to understand breathing airways and lung changes during sleep in people with Down syndrome. It may help researchers better interpret sleep MRI/CT scans and improve how sleep apnea (OSA) is studied in the future.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 1–90 - 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 - NCT07601724Recruiting
How fluid buildup affects sleep apnea in heart failure
This study looks at how excess fluid in the body affects sleep apnea (pauses in breathing during sleep) in people hospitalized with heart failure. Researchers will measure sleep apnea before and after treatment to reduce the fluid, which may help doctors better manage both conditions together.
JerusalemAges 18 years+ - NCT06915077Enrolling by invitation
Personalized treatment for sleep apnea
This study tests alternative treatments for people with moderate to severe sleep apnea who cannot use CPAP. It aims to find more tolerable options.
Wilrijk, AntwerpenAges 18 years+ - NCT06434558Enrolling by invitation
MRI predictors of cryolysis for sleep apnea
This study uses MRI scans to see how well a cold treatment (cryolysis) works for obstructive sleep apnea. It is only open to people already in the ARCTIC-3 trial at the University of Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT04129229Enrolling by invitation
Tongue device study for moderate-to-severe sleep apnea and snoring
This trial tests a tongue retractor device to help treat obstructive sleep apnea and reduce snoring in adults. You may be eligible if you have moderate-to-severe sleep apnea and can avoid other common treatments during the study.
Brighton, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03255408RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Sleep study testing breathing and blood flow in healthy adults
This study looks at how your brain blood flow and breathing change during sleep under normal oxygen and reduced oxygen. It will only include healthy adults so researchers can learn what “intermittent hypoxia” does to the body in people without medical problems.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–45 - NCT06896448Recruiting
Sleep apnea screening for head and neck cancer patients
This study tests a smartphone app (Apneal) to screen for sleep apnea in people who are being checked for head and neck cancer. It aims to find sleep problems early so they can be treated.
Caen, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06381115Recruiting
SleepWell24 app for new CPAP users
This study tests a smartphone app called SleepWell24 to help people with newly diagnosed sleep apnea stick with their CPAP therapy and improve their quality of life.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04623463Recruiting
Exercise and how it affects sleep apnea severity
This study looks at whether regular physical activity can make obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) less severe. It focuses on people who are not yet receiving OSA treatment and checks changes in severity over time.
GrenobleAges 18–80 - NCT06872593Recruiting
Driving simulator test for sleepiness in sleep apnea
This study tests a new driving simulator test (like a video game) to measure daytime sleepiness, compared to the standard sleepiness test. It looks at people with sleep apnea who temporarily stop using their CPAP machine, to see if the new test is accurate.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 67 recruiting obstructive sleep apnea of adult 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 obstructive sleep apnea of adult 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 obstructive sleep apnea of adult 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.
