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 - NCT06928766RecruitingPhase 2
Sleep aids for people with sleep apnea and insomnia
This trial tests two sleep medications, eszopiclone and lemborexant, to see if they can improve sleep quality in people who have both obstructive sleep apnea (where breathing stops during sleep) and trouble falling or staying asleep. It may help if you have mild sleep apnea and a low threshold for waking up easily.
Bedford Park, South AustraliaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06931028RecruitingPhase 3
Study of IBI362 for sleep apnea with obesity
This study tests an investigational medication (IBI362) to see if it can improve sleep apnea in people with obesity. You might qualify if you have moderate to severe sleep apnea and a BMI of 28 or higher, whether or not you currently use a CPAP machine.
BeijingAges 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+ - 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 - NCT06748703Recruiting
Optic nerve injury in obstructive sleep apnea patients
This study looks at whether sleep apnea affects the optic nerve, which connects your eye to your brain. It is for people newly diagnosed with sleep apnea who have not yet received treatment.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - 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+ - NCT06850220Recruiting
How sleep apnea affects thinking and empathy in kids
This study looks at how obstructive sleep apnea caused by enlarged tonsils or adenoids might affect a child's thinking skills and ability to understand others. It will help doctors learn if treating the sleep problem could also help with these skills.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 3–12 - NCT06720545Recruiting
Short break from nerve stimulation therapy and heart health
This study looks at what happens to your heart health and metabolism when you stop using a nerve stimulator for sleep apnea for a short time. It may help understand the risks and benefits of taking a break from this therapy.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06834724Recruiting
CPAP for sleep apnea and chronic pain
This study looks at whether CPAP treatment improves pain and daily life in people who have both sleep apnea and chronic pain. It tests if starting CPAP for the first time can help these symptoms.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06828835Recruiting
Sleep study for caregivers of children with breathing problems

Charleston, South CarolinaAges 2–12 - NCT06801366Recruiting
Video clips to help diagnose sleep apnea in children
This study tests if video clips recorded at home can help diagnose obstructive sleep apnea in children, possibly reducing the need for an overnight hospital sleep test. It may be a good fit if your child is between 2 and 18 years old, has been referred for a sleep study, and you have a smartphone or tablet.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 2–18 - NCT06782737Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for obstructive sleep apnea?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 299 recruiting obstructive sleep 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 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.
