Recruiting studies
- NCT07195253Recruiting
Down syndrome and sleep apnea study in infants
This study looks at mouth and face features and sleep apnea in 6-month-old infants with Down syndrome. It may help doctors understand and treat sleep problems better.

Can mouth muscle tests help diagnose sleep apnea?
This study tests a new device that measures muscle activity in your mouth to diagnose sleep apnea—without needing to spend the night in a lab. If you've already had a sleep test showing either no sleep apnea or moderate to severe sleep apnea, and you're not using CPAP daily, you may be able to help.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT07186725Recruiting

This trial tests a new home-based sleep monitor that goes under your mattress. It may help people with obstructive sleep apnea who are using a mouthpiece (MAD) as treatment.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–80 - NCT07191314Recruiting
Long-term study of a nasal airway for sleep apnea
This study is for people who already finished a previous study using a device called a nasopharyngeal airway (a small tube placed in the nose to help with breathing during sleep). It will check how well the device works over a longer time.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT07169058Enrolling by invitation
Hands-on therapy for sleep apnea: a gentle technique
This study tests a gentle manual therapy applied to the neck to see if it can improve breathing and vital signs during sleep. It is for people with moderate to severe sleep apnea who are not currently using a CPAP machine or other breathing devices.
Mardin, MardinAges 18–65 - NCT07160868Recruiting
Sleep apnea and severe asthma study
This study looks at whether people with difficult-to-treat asthma might also have obstructive sleep apnea. If you're on high-dose asthma treatments, this trial could help find out if sleep problems are making your asthma worse.
Dublin, DublinAges 18–90 - NCT07149233Enrolling by invitation
Breathing muscle training for sleep apnea patients
This trial tests whether training the muscles you use to breathe can improve sleep for people with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea. It is for adults who are not currently receiving standard treatments like CPAP.
Recife, PernambucoAges 18–70 - NCT06089161Recruiting
Sleep Apnea Treatment and Alzheimer's Risk in Black Adults
This trial tests whether personalized sleep apnea treatment can help protect memory and thinking in Black older adults. If you have sleep apnea and are concerned about Alzheimer's, this study may help you and others like you.
Miami, FloridaAges 60–85 - NCT07129967Recruiting
Mouth and face exercises for childhood sleep apnea
This study tests whether simple exercises for the mouth, tongue, and face can help children with mild sleep apnea breathe better during sleep. It's a non-surgical, drug-free approach that may be a good option for kids who haven't tried other treatments.
GhentAges 6–12 - NCT07132307Recruiting
Mouthpiece help after failed sleep apnea nerve stimulator
This study tests whether adding a special mouthpiece (mandibular advancement device) can help people whose sleep apnea wasn't fully treated by a nerve stimulator implant. You would use the mouthpiece at night and take home sleep tests to see if your breathing improves.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18–70 - NCT07121452Recruiting
Telehealth vs. standard care for sleep apnea in military families
This study compares a telehealth sleep-apnea program to standard care for people newly diagnosed with sleep apnea who are referred to private doctors in the TRICARE network. It aims to see if telehealth is just as effective and more convenient for military families.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–64 - 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+ - NCT07124975Enrolling by invitation
Comparing CPAP use feedback to improve treatment
This trial tests if showing your CPAP usage alongside other users helps you use it more. You'll get monthly mail with your usage data, and possibly others' data, for six months.
Kyoto, KyotoAges 20 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+ - NCT07090395Recruiting
Expanding use of EVO oral appliance for severe sleep apnea
This trial tests whether an EVO oral appliance can treat severe obstructive sleep apnea in people who haven't used other treatments recently. It aims to see if the device works for a wider group of patients.
New York, New YorkAges 18–80 - NCT07087587Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment for AFib: a personalized trial
This study tests whether treating sleep apnea with a CPAP machine can reduce the number of AFib episodes you have. It's a personalized 'N-of-1' trial, meaning you'll try both CPAP and no CPAP at different times to see what works best for you.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–85 - NCT07086612Recruiting
Sleep apnea and dental crossbite in children
This study looks at the link between sleep apnea (pauses in breathing during sleep) and a narrow upper jaw (crossbite) in children ages 6 to 16. It may help understand if treating the jaw can improve sleep breathing.
RouenAges 6–16 - NCT07082608Recruiting
Weight loss procedure plus lifestyle changes for sleep apnea
This study tests whether a stomach procedure called endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) plus lifestyle changes helps people with sleep apnea lose more weight and improve their breathing compared to lifestyle changes alone. If you have moderate to severe sleep apnea and have struggled to lose weight, this may be an option.
Hyderabad, TelanganaAges 18 years+ - NCT07074288Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatments for people who can't use CPAP
This study is comparing two alternative treatments for moderate to severe sleep apnea in people who cannot or will not use a CPAP machine. The treatments are a custom-fitted dental device and a nerve stimulation implant, and the study will see how well they work.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07049744Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for adults with obstructive sleep apnea
This trial tests a device that stimulates a nerve to keep your airway open during sleep. It might help if you have moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea and cannot use a CPAP mask.
Canberra, Australian Capital TerritoryAges 21 years+ - NCT07047092RecruitingPhase 3
CPAP vs. NIV for sleep apnea in COPD after breathing failure
This trial compares two breathing devices (CPAP and NIV) for people with both COPD and sleep apnea who recently needed breathing help in the hospital. The goal is to see which device works better at preventing future breathing emergencies.

- How do I know if I qualify for a obstructive sleep 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 obstructive sleep 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.
