Recruiting studies
- NCT06471751Recruiting
Breathing and throat muscle exercises for moderate sleep apnea
This trial tests whether strengthening your breathing and throat muscles can improve moderate sleep apnea. It aims to see if these exercises help reduce breathing pauses and improve sleep quality.
GrenobleAges 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 - NCT06430957Recruiting
Sleep apnea risk after dental surgery under general anesthesia
This study checks dental patients for the risk of sleep apnea before surgery and looks at whether that risk is linked to problems after general anesthesia. It may help you understand your own risk and improve safety.
KayseriAges 18–80 - NCT06380491RecruitingPhase 4
Melatonin for nighttime blood pressure in sleep apnea
This study tests whether melatonin can help lower nighttime blood pressure and improve sleep quality in people with obstructive sleep apnea who have 'non-dipping' blood pressure (blood pressure that stays high at night).
Mexico CityAges 18–60 - NCT06132477RecruitingPhase 4
Study of GLP-1 medicines after weight loss surgery
This study looks at what happens when people taking a GLP-1 medication (like Ozempic) either stop or continue it after weight loss surgery. The goal is to learn whether staying on the medicine helps with long-term weight control.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06117579Recruiting
Breathing Muscle Training for Sleep Apnea
This trial tests whether a simple breathing exercise (training the muscles you use to breathe in) can improve sleep apnea symptoms in people who already use CPAP. The goal is to see if adding this training helps you feel better or need less CPAP pressure.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT05350332Recruiting
Testing how lung air volume affects airway narrowing during sleep testing
This study looks at whether changing lung air volume affects how open or blocked your upper airway is during a drug-induced sleep test (DISE). It may help guide surgical choices for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT04092660Recruiting
Mouth guard study to reduce airway collapse in sleep apnea
This study tests whether using an anti-snoring mouth guard (a mandibular advancement appliance) can help keep your airway open during sleep if you have obstructive sleep apnea. If you’re referred for this kind of mouth guard, the trial will see if using it more regularly or in a specific way improves symptoms or breathing during sleep.
LondonAges 40–90 - NCT04124848Recruiting
Sleep apnea study for Somali community adults
This study looks at obstructive sleep apnea—breathing pauses or poor breathing during sleep—in Somali community members. It aims to learn more about sleep apnea in this specific group, which can help guide better care.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - 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 - 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 - NCT02703220RecruitingPhase 4
Sleep apnea treatment in older adults
This study tests whether certain medications can help older adults with mild to moderate sleep apnea breathe better during sleep. It aims to improve sleep quality and safety for elderly patients.
Detroit, MichiganAges 60–89 - 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+ - 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+ - NCT07829055Enrolling by invitation
Effects of mental tasks on breathing in chronic opioid users
This study looks at how doing mental tasks affects breathing in people who take opioids daily for chronic pain, compared to those with sleep apnea and healthy people. It may help understand how opioids affect breathing and improve safety.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 45–65 - 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 - NCT07743931Recruiting
Combining CPAP and a sleep medication for sleep apnea with insomnia
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 - 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+ - NCT07331285Recruiting
Genio therapy study for moderate to severe sleep apnea
This trial studies a device called Genio that is implanted to help keep your airway open while you sleep. It is for people with moderate to severe sleep apnea who have not been helped by other treatments.
Miami, FloridaAges 22 years+ - NCT07292922Recruiting
Digital therapy for sleep apnea with tongue and face exercises
This trial tests a digital therapy program that uses tongue and face exercises to help with sleep apnea. It's designed for people who have mild to moderate sleep apnea but cannot or do not want to use a CPAP machine or mouthpiece.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for obstructive sleep apnea of adult?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 66 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.
